Hi,
I'm going to be in Barcelona from the 27th august till the 1st September...trying to look for information about any beach parties going on but didnt manage to find any info!
Anyone have an idea if there will be any going on?

Beyond festivals(of which there are many), Sunday is a big day for impromptu beach parties. Each city beach has its own on sand bar. DJs begin spinning at sundown and people start to get their groove on. If you don't know of any other parties, this is a solid bet.
Thanks for the help...i guess i'll leave Sunday to heading down to the beach! Cheers!
Walking down Las Ramblas was entertaining at any point. It was constantly jammed packed of people and 'buskers'.....Lots of costumes and artists and market and people. Great times, endless fun. I enjoyed every aspect of Barcelona, from its food, shopping, weather, to its people and accommodation.
I shall return!
Barcelona and most of Catalonia speaks Castilian (Spanish) and Catalan. Catalan is also spoken in parts of France and other parts of Europe. English is widely understood especially because of the in flux of British tourists.
Take a free map of Barcelona at the Tourist Information. The map includes the locations of the main sights and a Metro plan.
Barcelona has a few Tourist Information offices all over the town. A centrally located office can be found at Placa de Catalunya.
Park Guell is Antoni Gaudi's most colourful creation. He was commissioned in the 1890s by Count Eusebi Guell to design a garden city on 20 hectares of land. In the event, little of the grand design for public buildings and 60 houses in landscaped gardens became reality. What we see today was completed between 1910 and 1914 and the park opened his doors in 1922.
Most atmospheric is probably the Room of a Hundred Columns, a cavernous market hall of 84 (so not a 100!) crooked pillars, brightened by glass and ceramic mosaics. To be exact it's decorated with polychrome mosaics of broken stone, ceramic pots and old tiles. The park is very popular and has an obscure cymbolic content. Shapes and colours were inspired by natural forms which Gaudi, a devout catholic, saw as instances of divine craftmanship.
Address: Carrer d'Olot, 08024 Barcelona.
Directions: Bus 24, 25, 31, or 74. Metro; line 3. Lesseps Station, then follow the street signs. Do keep in mind that it is quite a strenous walk to the main entrance!
it's is a small and cosy shop full of paper things. Many of them are made by hand. Different colors for diffirent purposes: envelops, paper, cards, diaries, notebooks, pencils.... It depends on what you buy but it's not expensive.
