Barcelona for Real Travellers: A journey through the streets, history, characters, and current affairs of the most progressive and rebellious city in - Paperback

by Vincenzo Bardo (Author)

'Barcelona for real travellers' is a book that provides unorthodox insights into a splendid, vibrant city with very old traditions, a strong personality, and a controversial present all of which fascinates those who spend any amount of time there.

Inhabited by lively, curious and courageous people capable of banding together for a good cause when necessary, Barcelona is a community in which utopian flavoured battles still make sense.

The plan to make the city the first in the world without car is at a standstill, as is the independence project, meanwhile the construction of the astonishing 'Cathedral of the poor', the Sagrada Familia, continues amidst thousands of obstacles thanks to the millions of visitors it welcomes every year.

Furthermore, Barcelona is now hosting the America's Cup of sailing, a glossy event which is attracting to the city millions of people.

All that while still maintaining its rebellious, progressive, indomitable, and tolerant identity.

The book included color pictures.
