Barcelona is not only the capital of the Catalunya region, but is also a cosmopolitan city that has a special and unique charm, and is located at the edge of the Mediterranean. The city is prosperous, dynamic and enchanting; but most of all, it is always lit with energy. Barcelona offers a very diverse atmosphere, where culture, communication and entertainment are part of the everyday life. Barcelona has always been a city at the cutting edge of fashion and architecture, combining the old with the new. Barcelona’s unique, exciting atmosphere provides foreigners with a truly unforgettable experience. There are two major art festivals during the year: one in the summer and one in the autumn.
