Catalunya

Famous for being one of the most beautiful parts of Spain Catalonia attracts thousands of visitors every year to its beaches and sunny shores, cultural activities, architecture and historical sights, and diverse range of interesting and unique highlights. There’s a lot going on in Barcelona and it has much to offer for those keen on spending a few days, or weeks, in a Mediterranean climate - dine outdoors on the cool terrace and watch the starry nightsky of the city in any number of fine restaurants. For choice and convenience why not book into rental apartments Barcelona? They range from luxourious and trendy apartments with prices to match to simple basic accommodation at cheap rates. Barcelona is a city with a troubled past and on a number of occasions the Catalan language was actually banned from being spoken, and traditions prevented from taking place - most recently by the dictator General Franco. After Franco’s death in 1975 the country embraced democracy and with the Spanish Constitution of 1978 allowing each region to be more independent the Catalan language and culture is once again thriving, the Catalans are proud of theor heritage and this can be seen all over the area in the festivities, cuisine and cultural sights.
