Barcelona is definitely most beautiful town in the world, at least for me. I have been there over 50 times and never felt bored. So many places o see with architecture so diferent than anywhere else I have been. You have to see Sagrada Familia church and all the buildings made by Antonio Gaudi, or feel the Ramblas or walk around Barri Gotic to understand what am I talking about. But there is something that was very interesting because I did not expect to come across that in Spain. You see i love chocholate and marchpane (marcipane) and I always thought that the best of those are coming from Austria and Switzerland. But I was wrong. Catalonia/Spain has so many diferent tastes, and many of them are hand made by very old recepies. You should also visit Montserrat - national shrine of Catalonia with Madonna Moreneta (Black Madonna)- it is mountain 1 hour drive to north and buy chocholate there made by Benedictin monks. Recepie is the same since 1025. But if that is impossible, you can always find many little stores that sell great chocholate and marcipane and wrap them in beautiful boxes for gift.
