Catalonia

Catalonia is one of the most diverse regions of Spain, with its own language, a proud culture and landscapes ranging from the Pyrenees to the Mediterranean. Its capital, Barcelona, is famous for Gaudí’s architecture. Beyond the city, explore medieval Girona, the Jewish quarter and Romanesque bridge of Besalú, and Figueres with the Dalí Theatre-Museum. On the Costa Brava, Lloret de Mar and Tossa de Mar offer beaches and lively summer evenings, while the Costa Dorada is home to PortAventura.
