It’s Christmas time! Let’s discover the Catalonians’ traditions and the best places to go shopping in Barcelona.First of all, let’s do shopping! The most traditional Christmas market is the “Fira de Santa Llúcia” on the square in front of Barcelona’s Cathedral. You can buy the traditional “belén” (crib) and create your own nativity scene! Close to Sagrada Familia, there is another Christmas market which is open until 9pm every day.
For Christmas, Barcelona Guide Bureau offers to live a unique experience with a personal shopper through the following tours: “Art Puzzle, Sensual Living”, “Design Spaces & Sensual Moods” and “Magic, Emotion, Colours, Moods & Secret Places”. With Barcelona Guide Bureau you will have the opportunity to take a piece of Barcelona home with you!

If you want to try typical Catalan dishes this Christmas try the “escudella”, a meat and vegetable stew, or the “Car D’Olla”, a special roast. For dessert, in Catalonia as well as in the rest of Spain, the “torrons” are essential!
