Route description for Barcelona


Barcelona

Barcelona, the capital of Catalonia with the largest and longest construction site in Europe, was our destination; and true to the motto: "the journey is the destination" - we were able to collect many beautiful places, impressions and experiences on the way there. But see for yourself... Our highlight: the Sagrada Familia is definitely worth a trip! Video of the trip: https://youtu.be/FZVXX0Y3RB4?si=u_1GowjYPt4Ehjq8
