Barcelona, Spain

Sits on the shores of the Mediterranean, a stunning mix of Gothic and avant-garde architecture in the Catalan sunshine, sultry nightlife and renowned Michelin-starred dining, artistic atmosphere, more and more elements attracted me to come to visit Barcelona. This city is best for the traveller in culture vultures, art lovers and curious types

I visited this gorgeous city on August 2017, it’s already 2 years more ago and now I am planning to visit again as too much to see, too much to eat, too much to play and TOO MUCH FUN!

If anyone who also attract above elements, please stay with me and keep scroll down on this page!


Basic information

Flight depart from Hong Kong (HKG), there is only 1 flight operate by Cathay Pacific per week, the total duration of flying time is around 13hours 35mins. For travelers depart HKG which kind of long-haul journey, but I can tell it totally worth it and round trip ticket airfare by in-direct flight with around less than 2 hours transit time sometimes only cost HK5,000++, direct flight cost HK8,000++.

Average Weather in Barcelona, the summers are short, warm, humid, and mostly clear and the winters are long, cold, and partly cloudy. Over the course of the year, the warmest month is July and August in 34.0° Celsius; the coolest month is January in 16.0° Celsius.
So I recommend to go to Barcelona in below 2 period: 1/February till June and 2/September till November are the most prefect comfort weather to avoid the freeze and heat.
