2. My favourite places in Barcelona - Tibidabo

If you are looking for some calm and quiet place in Barcelona, Tibidabo will be perfect for you. Around it there is a beautiful natural park. If you want to escape for a moment from the noisy, crowded city center I really recomend you to go there.

Tobidabo is the highest point in Barcelona (512 meters above sea level). The peak is situated in the Collserola Mountain Rage. The views are spectacular there. You can see all the city, including the most famous building of barcelona - La Sagrada Familia. On the peak of Tibidabo is located the Sacred Heart church. It is worth to go inside to see the walls decorated with mosaics which present bible scenes. Next to the church there is the oldest theme park of Barcelona.

What I like the most about Tibidabo is the Collserola Natural Park. There are a lot of paths for hiking, places where you can admire the beautiful views and just relax.

Tibidabo inspired the screenwriters of the most famous american comedy series ever -Friends. You have to hear from Joey the magic, romantic story about Western Europe. Enjoy watching! ;)

Delta de l'Ebre - The kingdom of birds

In Catalunya there are a lot of places where you can relax and forget about all your problems. In my opinion, the most beautiful one is The Ebro Delta. If you need a rest I recommend you to visit this nature reserve. It's even more interesting for all of you who love observe nature and, above all, birds. The Ebro Delta is one of the largest wetland areas in the western Mediterranean region. Is situated in the Province of Tarragona. A large part of the delta is a natural park named Ebro Delta Natural Park (cat. Parc Natural del Delta de l'Ebre). It has 95 breeding species of birds and is also very important for over 300 species of a wide range of transient and overwintering species. The Ebro Delta Park serves as an essential stopover point for large numbers of migratory birds and waterfowl . When I was there I saw the flock of flamingos for the first time in my life. It was an unforgett...

La Senyera and La Estelada

La Senyera is the Catalan flag. It is one of the most important symbols of that autonomous community of Spain. You can see it everywhere when you are in Catalonia, in big cities and in villages. The Catalans are very proud of it. There is also another flag, La Estelada which is a little different from the senyera. The senyera pattern is currently in the flag of four Spanish autonomous communities: Catalonia, Aragon, the Balearic Isles and the Valencian Country and is the flag of the historically Catalan-speaking city of Alghero in Sardinia. The senyera is composed of four longitudinal red and yellow stripes. The difference betwen the senyera and the estelada is that the esteleda has the addition of a five-pointed star in a triangle at the hoist. The estelada is the symbol used by the Catalan independence movement. Two Catalan flags: La Senyera y La Estelada during one of the manifestation in Barcelona before the referendum in 2017 La Senyera and La Estelada hung down in ...
