Including Kristen Stewart in my "Best Dressed" post is my biggest surprise. I do not get her as an actress and she generally looks so distressed, dirty, and grungy. I have to give her credit, she actually smiled last night (not in this picture though) and she chose the right night to look like a million bucks. Well done Kristen. Please take note and dress like this (well, maybe not exactly like this) from here on out. At least smile once in awhile.
I came close to including Penelope Cruz, Jane Seymour, and Maggie Gyllenhall. Did I leave your favorite out? Anything grab you?

Advance teacher, Samia was so impressed with her student, Zayra's travel piece, that she wanted to share it with everyone else to read. We are always very proud of our students who produce work of such great caliber. Well done!
Call it the pearl of the Antilles, the Casablanca of the Caribbean, a tropical paradise. Describe it as exhilarating, lined with seductive beaches melting into a magnificent coastline ringed with deep bays. Add grasslands, gentle slopes, rolling hills, towering mountains and people who are warm and welcoming. This is Cuba.
Havana is the capital of Cuba, an island located between the Atlantic and the Caribbean, near the shores of Mexico and the United States. This tourist destination was declared a world heritage site due to the fact that it has preserved, among other things, its beautiful architecture and a culture rich in traditions.
Travelers discover an impoverished country of about 12 million, living in an area 780 miles long and 119 miles wide.
With its crumbling tenements and increasingly traffic-clogged streets, Havana is no conventional beauty. Despite boasting colonial edifices to rival Buenos Aires and a dramatic coastline to match California, the city lacks the jaw-dropping magnificence of Paris or the spectacular physical setting of Rio de Janeiro. Instead, a large part of Havana's attraction lies in the visceral and the abstract.
Magically, the morning sun and the hot, salty breezes push the privations encountered in the city into the background and the Capital, Havana, still stands as one of the most beautiful cities in the world despite its seedy appearance.
The Cuban magic cannot be separated from its history. You can feel and smell Fidel Castro and his revolution on the paved streets, you can hear the echo of his clamoring voice and eloquence through the tumbling walls and you can touch the embargo wherever you set your eyes.
That same enchantment draws you to "La Habana Vieja", old Havana, a reminder of the Spanish colonial era, Old Havana is a fascinating mix of Baroque, neoclassical monuments, Art Deco and Art Nouveau architecture interspersed with private homes decorated with balconies, wrought-iron gates and inside courtyards.
La Habana Vieja hums with street life, cafés and charm. Here, Habaneros dance 'casino' (salsa) with their ordinary lives, sit alongside friends in the middle of the narrow streets and while away their misery and hope playing dominoes.
The beckoning music, a constant character in the city; slick stores and dark run-down bodegas, crafts, flea markets and museums all make it exciting for the sightseer.
Gaze at colonial Palaces, walk through narrow alleys and stroll the inviting plazas. Have coffee in an outdoor café in the lovely square of the "La Plaza de la Catedral" and dare to walk hand in hand with the passion and vitality you'll find along the way.
Visit the 'Capitolio' building. A copy of the one in Washington D.C., it took 17 million dollars and three years to complete in the 1920's.
Taste the astoundingly delicious food served in one of the best eateries in the city, Los Nardos, located directly opposite the 'Capitolio'.
Attend a performance at 'El Gran Teatro de La Habana', built in 1837 and home to the National Cuba Ballet, the Opera and Havana's Flamenco ensemble.
Then, head for the 'Malecón', a promenade extending along the three-mile seafront where huge waves crash over the seawall. Dialogue with local people and enjoy their vivacious nature.
For insight on the impact of the Cuban Revolution, go to two important sites. One is Revolution Square, the huge area where Castro addresses the nation. The other is the revolutionary museums in the former palace at 'Refugio 1', which houses prerevolutionary artifacts.
'Havana is very much like a rose', said Fico Fellove in the movie 'The lost city', 'it has petals and it has thorns…so it depends on how you grab it. But in the end it always grabs you.'

CHANNING TATUM Wowed By New Girlfriend JESSIE J
Karen Jane Ng
Posted at
Channing Tatum was in awe of new girlfriend Jessie J during her recent show in London. The Magic Mike star proudly posted on Instagram: "This woman just poured her heart out on stage at the Royal Albert Hall. Whoever was there got to witness something special. Wow."
Meanwhile, the "Bang Bang" singer put on a brave soul as she revealed her struggle with infertility at the said concert.
"So four years ago, I was told that I couldn't have children, and it's OK, I'm going to have children, trust me. When the doctor told me, my reaction was, 'Oh hell nooooooo,'" a positive Jessie told the crowd. (via E! News) "And I don't tell you guys for sympathy, I'm one of millions of women, and of men, that have gone through this and will go through this, and it can't become something that defines us."
"But, I wanted to write this song for myself in my moment of pain and of sadness. But, also to give myself joy and give other people something that they can listen to in that moment when it gets really hard," she added just before performing her 2018 single inspired by her ongoing "baby" battle, "Four Letter Word".
"So, if you've ever experienced anything with this or have seen somebody else go through it, or have lost a child, then please know you are not alone in your pain."

Better late than never...
A wee reflection and update on Meal Plans, a project which culminated in an exhibition of new works entitled The CleanMeat Revolution.
Posted by
David LisserDavid is a sculptor who makes work that investigates our relationships with technology and the future. He particularly enjoys cooking, eating and talking about food and so culinary themes often pop up in his artwork.
Meal PlansMeal Plans is a research-led art project that imagines the future of food as if it were history.
I took down and packed The CleanMeat Revolution almost four months ago to the day. Something that was five months in the making was wrapped up in about 6 hours, and it strikes me once again how unnervingly quick the deinstall process can be. I see this pretty regularly with my art handler/technician hat on – a show that took three weeks to install can be in crates and on the back of a lorry within a couple of days.
The CleanMeat Revolution exhibition at We The Curious by Shamphat Photography
I think my brain works to a similar timescale, specifically with art projects. It goes a little something like this: ideas occupy my mind and conversations for a few months, become slowly more solid over time, consume more mental space as deadlines loom, necessitate a frenetic burst towards the end, and then celebration! Usually followed by exhaustion, a need for distance and ideally a period of reflection and evaluation.
Except I'm really quite bad at the last bit, unless someone really asks me – and I mean more than a polite how-did-the-show-go? question - I am rather vague about the successes or pitfalls of any particular body of work. I suppose I've got into a bad habit of moving straight onto the next thing, so when Vic asked me to write a wee reflection and update, it was a welcome challenge.
Working at the Pervasive Media Studio was a genuinely extraordinary period in my life, I saw inspiring things, had lots of brain-breaking conversations, shared in the excitement of various developing projects and met some truly wonderful people who have changed how I live life.
And if I am allowed to say this - I am proud of the work I achieved there. Working on The CleanMeat Revolution helped me to put into solid form a number of ideas I had been playing with for a while, and in doing so confirmed a few suspicions:
1. humour can be helpful – some of the most consistent feedback from visitors and staff at We The Curious was that the mock museum labels not only enhanced the sense of narrative but prompted some wry smiles. When dealing with potentially heavy material – i.e. the future of farming, climate collapse, hunger and global inequality – it is easy to be preachy or worthy, but a well placed gag makes us laugh, and a very well placed gag makes us wonder why we laughed and points a finger directly and uncomfortably on the heart of the matter, which is usually human behaviour.
2. future – histories can work – One of the hardest things about this project was trying to describe it well in a couple of sentences. 'it's a sort of museum exhibition looking back at the 21st century, and with objects and things that haven't happened yet, but in the future, where the exhibition is, they have already passed. But actually its based on things that are happening now – as in Now now – and imagining them forwards, but treating them as history.. um… yeah – like that.'
As you can see, I struggled at first. But again the feedback confirmed that considering a potential future as history helped people to make a mental leap, and think more carefully about the kind of lives they want to be living in the years to come. This made me very happy indeed.
3. trust others – One of the things I realised during this project is that I don't have to understand everything, this is embarrassingly obvious in writing, but is something I struggle to keep in check. A natural curiosity about the world often leads me to try and understand exactly how something works when sometimes I should just trust the person who is telling me it does work. Perhaps this is not foolproof, but I can tell you that within the studio it is a pretty safe bet.
During the install there was a potentially stressful situation when a piece of software decided to stop playing ball. Now I had the extraordinary good fortune of working with Tarim on this who is an absolute gem; a gracious, generous, genuine expert. So in this particular moment, I simply had to hand everything over to Tarim – I was utterly redundant at this point in time, a position that would ordinarily smart my ego, but in my own uselessness I found a sense of freedom, because I trusted Tarim. And I had every reason to; he worked for a few hours, doing incomprehensible things with code, drank a decaff coffee and voila, the software was back on our side.
This intention to trust is something that I'll be taking into my next project. Once again working around themes of future food-resilience, Last Ditch Attempt is a collaboration between myself and another North-East based artist, Lucien Anderson.
Key to our project is the recent flooding of the Svalbard Global Seed Vault. At 78 degrees north it "is the ultimate insurance policy for the world's food supply…and will secure, for centuries, millions of seeds… It is the final back up". Last year warming surface temperatures caused the permafrost to melt and water cascaded in. It was designed to run without human intervention, but now constantly monitored pumps are being installed. This monumental, permanent stronghold clearly won't work forever - we need a new strategy.
Last Ditch Attempt is part spectacle, part speculative solution; a mobile seed library housed on a modified cargo tricycle that acts as a starting point for a seed-sharing network.
Taking inspiration from decentralised systems, we will begin with a large deposit of open pollinated seed capsules, cycle around the North East meeting horticulturalists, gardeners and novices alike, hand out seed capsules and work together to initiate a new seed-sharing network. Something like this obviously requires us to trust the people we meet, talk to and give seeds to. By its own measure, if we find ourselves trying to control this network, it has failed. We will have to be ready for all the messy disappointments that might come our way, but if there is one thing that working with Pervasive Media Studio has taught me, being open and generous is worth it.

In case you missed it this morning, journalist Colin Campbell of The Insider has a good piece in this morning' News & Observer about the problems arising from House Speaker Tim Moore's far flung law practice. As Campbell points out, it raises serious ethical issues when a powerful politician represents multiple private and public clients on the side.
While some local governments pay lobbyists to represent them in Raleigh, Moore's home county decided it would be smarter to pay one of the most powerful people in the state to attend every commission meeting. Moore also serves as attorney for his county's public utility.
Moore's legal client base extends far outside Cleveland County. The North Carolina Bail Agents Association paid him $10,000 for work involving the N.C. Department of Insurance in 2012. Later that year — after Moore was no longer on the group's payroll — the legislature passed a law that gave the association a monopoly in providing required bail bond training. Moore recused himself from the vote, but anonymous allegations that claim he was involved behind the scenes have drawn the interest of the FBI.
Moore also did legal work for Durham businessman Neal Hunter, a few years after Moore sponsored legislation that intervened on Hunter's behalf in a dispute with Durham officials over a new development project, The News & Observer reported.
Moore's work for the businessman and the bail association prompted a review from Wake County District Attorney Lorrin Freeman, who announced last month that she'd "found no misuse of public office for private gain or other wrongdoing as to these payments."
Moore's actions appear to be perfectly legal, according to Freeman. But it's still likely some of Moore's clients are hiring him because of his political power instead of his legal prowess. And while Moore may be following ethics rules and keeping legal work separate from legislative work, the current system is easy to abuse.
Campbell's correct in highlighting Moore's work as highly problematic and in identifying a couple of possible solutions:
There's an easy solution to this: Elected officials should be required to list all legal clients on their ethics forms. They're already required to list their business interests, major investments and real-estate holdings, so legal work should be no exception.
Lawyers, of course, will claim that such a rule would violate attorney-client privilege. That problem would be easily solved by having elected officials' legal clients sign a form agreeing to the public disclosure.
Or we could go a step further — make serving in the House and Senate a full-time job with full-time pay, and ban legislators from taking on outside employment while in office.
Taxpayers would spend more on legislative salaries, but they'd know that their representatives are working exclusively for them. We'd have fewer political scandals and greater confidence in government.
And House Speaker Tim Moore wouldn't have to worry about answering questions from the FBI, or making sure the legislative session is over in time to attend a county commission meeting three hours away.

Every year around this time, college basketball rules the sports world. The upsets and thrilling finishes of March Madness captivate sports fans across the country as brackets are busted and presumed favorites are sent packing early. Stars are born and some of the game's most memorable moments are created.
In the 1993 NCAA Tournament, Jason Kidd and the Cal Golden Bears left their mark during the tournament's opening weekend, first with a thrilling triumph over LSU and then with a surprising upset of the two-time defending champion Duke Blue Devils.
Kidd's team entering the tournament was talented, but still very young. They finished second in the Pac-10 that year, which earned them a No. 6 seed, so no one was expecting much from Cal, a program making its second appearance in the Big Dance since 1960.
LSU raced out to a 36-29 halftime lead, hungry to pull the upset, but J-Kidd and the rest of his Cal teammates remained poised under pressure and fought their way back into the game, proving that they were built for the big stage.
J-Kidd finished the game with 16 points, seven assists, seven rebounds, five steals and just one turnover. No play was more important, however, than his final bucket of the game, which completed the comeback and sealed the win for the Golden Bears.
"He's a big-time player and big-time players live for moments like that," Cal coach Todd Bozeman said.
Kidd scored the game-winning basket on what would become known as "The Pretzel Shot," as J-Kidd twisted his way to the bucket and finished in traffic to win the game 66-64 and move on to the second round.
"It was kind of a pretzel shot," LSU coach Dale Brown said. "I don't know how he did it."
Two days later, the Golden Bears would face their toughest challenge yet in the Duke Blue Devils, who were led by Grant Hill. Most of the college basketball world didn't even consider Cal as a threat to the two-time defending champions, but J-Kidd had other plans.
Kidd delivered another spectacular performance, posting 11 points, 14 assists, eight rebounds and four steals as Cal built a huge early lead. Cal led by 10 at the half and put everyone on notice.
However, Duke didn't panic and came charging back in the second half as their talent and experience began to take over. Bobby Hurley, in particular, did most of the damage in the second half for Duke. He scored 32 in the game, including six three-pointers, which was vital in bringing Duke back into the game.
Duke ended up taking the lead and led by one with about a minute and a half to go. Despite being young, Cal found a way to beat the team that seemingly always came out on top. Many times in the tournament, games come down to a few lucky bounces, a hustle play and free throws, and in the final minutes, Cal found themselves on the right side of luck to close out the game and dethrone Duke.
It was a wild opening weekend upset, the kind you seem to only see in March. A variety of factors played into it, and J-Kidd played a big role as he went toe-to-toe with Grant Hill and Bobby Hurley.
This moment will always be etched into NCAA Tournament lore, as it was one of the most shocking results in NCAA Tournament history against one of the most prestigious programs in the country.
The final sequence is perhaps best told from Kidd's perspective in this excerpt from a Player's Tribune article:
With about a minute and a half left, we were down by a point and had possession after rebounding a miss by Duke. I started running it down to the other end of the floor, trying to do everything by myself. I took a bad shot at the same time as Grant Hill tried to take a charge. The ref didn't blow the whistle, and we ended up getting the ball back because it deflected off of Grant before going out of bounds.
If I were a better passer at that point in my career, I would have found the right guy. This play is also a perfect example of the importance of slowing down and playing under control.
We inbounded the ball and that's when I made a play that I can only describe as lucky. I was trying to pass it to one of my teammates in a tight window and the ball got deflected back to me for an and-one layup.
Just complete luck.
I sank the free throw to put us up two points with a minute left. That was when I actually started thinking we could win this game. There was a whole lot of time left, but we were one stop and one score away from pretty much putting it away. And that's when the somewhat unthinkable happened: Grant Hill got called for a traveling violation with 49 seconds left in the game. I was right there to make the call.
At that point, it became a game of free throws, and I wanted the ball in my hands. After I was fouled, I even told the TV announcers that I was going to sink both of them. Somehow, we ended up with an even more positive result than that. I made the first free throw, and the second one hit back iron and then ricocheted off one of our players' hands and onto the leg of a Duke player, who kicked it out of bounds, giving us possession.
We had the ball and a three-point lead.
Want to see how loose we were playing in this game? Check out the inbounds pass I made to Alfred Grigsby. Duke was looking for a steal, and I lofted a pass over Chris Collins's shoulder right to Alfred on a cut.
That play was about trust and understanding your teammates. I liked inbounding the ball back then because it allowed me the opportunity to take chances like this sometimes. When you're the underdog, you should use the lack of expectations to your benefit by remembering that basketball is fun. If you play with that attitude, good things can happen.
We missed the free throw that would have given us a two-possession lead, and then Duke had one more shot at tying the game. Bobby Hurley got a great look.
Lamond Murray had to get up there to grab the rebound. He had a monster game for us. And then he sank free throws, and it really dawned on us what we had done. We took a two-possession lead and never let go of it. We did what nobody thought we could do. We beat Duke.
A lot of basketball fans said that we pulled off a miracle that day. I'm not going to argue with them.

So the kids have only been out for summer about 2 weeks or so, and we have been out and about visiting many of the parks in the Durham region. Some of which I previously mentioned in my last post. Therefore, sticking to the trend, here are my Fave 5 snacks for on-the-go.
During the summer, we as moms, are out and about with our littles. Sometimes we are out longer than anticipated, as we want to soak up the warm sunshine while we can; or our little ones just don't want to head home. I like to look for quick and easy grab and go snacks that are also fairly economical and of course healthy, or as healthy as possible.
Here are my Fave 5 go to for when I hit the streets.
1) Fruit- Banana, avocado, watermelon, any berries- take advantage when in season, grapes etc.
2) Yogurt- My kids love the IÖGO nanö drinkable yogurts with the spill proof spout. It's the perfect size for them to hold. It's made with real fruit, no artificial colours or flavours, no preservatives, Gelatine free and made with vitamin D fortified milk.
3) Cheese and crackers- Over at our house, my kids love the marble cheddar cheese by Black Diamond, I cut into pieces for their little hands, or for a quicker fix I just grab the Cheese strings Ficello by Black diamond.
4)Muffins/banana bread- Here is a simple recipe, compliments of Simply Recipes. I make a few adjustments such as adding cinnamon, browning the melted butter until it has a nutty aroma, and on rare occasions adding some chocolate chips.
5)Veggies & dip- sweet peppers, carrots,broccoli etc. and the dip of your choice. Mostly it's ranch in my house for the kids.
I hope my Fave 5 snacks were helpful. What are your Fave 5 or go to snacks when you are on the run? Remember to also stay hydrated! It's been a hot last couple of weeks.
Have a great week!

Now that the world Cup is over, the spell holding men over is broken, according to many women. One of the most common complaints about men, is that they often seem to have a stronger relationship with their favorite football team than with their wife. This seems very puzzling to many women. So today, I shall attempt to explain this seemingly odd behavior of men.
Growing up, boys develop this close bond with their football team. As they grow up, so does the bond with their football team and blossoms into this amazing strong commitment to their team. It becomes stronger than say .. weddings vows!
When a man gets married, he says it is for richer or poorer, sickness and health, until death do them part, but deep down, the man knows he could always change his mind! He might end up with a 2nd wife, 3rd wife or even 4th wife and ocassionally all at the same time!
But the commitment to their football team is PERMENANT! A man might change/add wives but he will never change loyalty to his football team, even if they are at the bottom of league!
Reecent political tensions between Arabs countries over football is a perfect example of how strong a bond men develop with their team. I think research will show that men have a gene called football GS217 (speculation on my part) responsible for this behavious.
So what you say, give men a break? Feel free to air your views (in a civil manner) and tell us what you think of men's football obsession.
Thank you for reading.

Destination wedding Sardinia
Destination wedding Sardinia
The story of Maria and Marco's wedding starts from the web, as with most of my wedding photography in Sardinia.
Since hardly I have chance to meet up with my clients before hand, I have learned and implemented how to keep a
straightforward and clear communication from first mailing contact.
I have to say that I feel double flattered for their choice has fallen on my wedding photography since
Marco is himself a professional photographer back in Cologne, Germany.
I have been improving my photography skills during the past 5 years and always strive to offer y
ou original and unique photography for your destination wedding Sardinia.
This include constant location scouting during winter months, locations that I keep in mind and use should I
be asked about unique spots where to ambient the couple photography session.
The day started with some preparations photographs at the beautiful Villa they rented in Sos Aranzos,
few kms off Olbia, in a quiet and relaxed atmosphere.
That has allowed me to move freely around and coming out with some amazing and intimate groom and bride
preparation photography. Some of them are shown below.
After covering the whole preparations process, the rings and few ambient shots, we headed towards
Comune di Olbia, where the civil ceremony took place.
It usually happen in a small garden next to Comune, under a nice gazebo, but this time, as for nasty weather condition,
they decided to do it inside the Comune.
To be continued, I have to shoot out for another wedding photography service 🙂
Thanks for your visit!

What is #GC40? | Join GirlCrew Glasgow (Or tell a friend about it) | Join GirlCrew Trips & Travel
Scotland has officially got all of their GirlCrew groups into the #GC40 before any other country. It's an alphabetical trip, but still. Good job Scots. Check out our tips for life/travel in Aberdeen and Edinburgh if you missed them too. Glasgow grew from a rural settlement on the River Clyde to become the largest seaport in Britain and is the third largest city overall in the UK. It has a super lively and lovely GirlCrew group so if you are looking for some adventure buddies either living there or traveling, just click the link above to join. Or check out some of our other city groups. We're basically taking over the world and you're invited to the party.
Need to book a hotel in Glasgow? Check out Booking.com*
Daytime Activities in Glasgow
Visit the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum. As well as being a stunning building architecturally, it houses one of Europe's great art collections, is amongst the top three free-to-enter visitor attractions in Scotland and one of the most visited museums in the United Kingdom outside of London. If art is your bag, the girls also recommend a trip to the Gallery of Modern Art. I went as a kid myself and loved it even then. Pretty sure it's part of what set me on the route to art college in my later years. If you're into design and architecture you should also go for in The Willow Tea Rooms designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh. If you're on a museum binge you should also see The People's Palace, set in Glasgow Green (the city's oldest park). It's home to a collection of historical artifacts, photographs, prints and film, which gives an unrivaled insight into how Glaswegians lived, worked and played from the 18th to the 20th Century. The park is also perfect for a walk or a picnic! If you're not there for typical Glaswegian weather 😉
Outside the City
Scotland is well known for its beautiful landscapes and lochs. If you're stopping off in Glasgow, Loch Lomond is only up the road and well worth a visit.
Food, Drinks & Nights Out
Make your way to Ashton lane for a little wander about to choose some nice spots for food and drinks. The cobbled backstreet in the West End of Glasgow is connected to Byres Road by a short linking lane beside Hillhead subway station and is noted for its bars, restaurants and The Grosvenor Picture Theatre. Our girls also recommend checking out West Brewery Bar & Restaurant.
If you're looking for something a little different try out the Glasgow Subcrawl – yep, you read that correctly. It's a tour along the subway route in Glasgow heading out at each stop on the circuit to check out a pub nearby and typically done dressed up. Now there's a novel way to get to know a city better. We recommend some 7ups if you want to remember it 😉
Making friends in Glasgow
GirlCrew was set up to make a few new friends for nights out on the tiles but it quickly evolved into the place to go for some female pals for any kinds of social activities. It started in Dublin but there's a great group growing in Glasgow, along with over 40 other city groups across the globe too. The group is open to all women over about 25 and up and there's always newbies joining the group so don't worry about being new to it. We were all a newbie once! Hit the link below to join the Glasgow crew or check out our other city groups here.

Essential Barcelona
Barcelona Skyline from Marc Subirana on Vimeo.
Barcelona is the capital of Catalonia. With over 1,770,000 inhabitants, it joins in its surrounding area a group of 36 towns referred to together as the Metropolitan Area and which combined are home to half of Catalonia's 7 million inhabitants.
With 2,000 years of history, the city is a living museum in terms of architecture, art and culture, but that does not stop it from looking to the future, as the site of leading international congresses, a design capital, an organiser of sporting events, etc.
Facing the sea and flanked by two mountains, it is not difficult to find landmarks to orient yourself after being in the city just a few days. Some of the iconic and essential sights include:
- Plaça Catalunya: quintessential city centre, below it and until arriving at the sea, you will find the district of Ciutat Vella (old city), which is made up of various neighbourhoods and is the location of a large number of museums and points of historical interest. It is also a shopping highlight with the streets Pelai and Portal de l'Àngel, as well as shopping centres and department stores. Moreover, it is the hub of the city's transport network.
La Rambla: the most famous street in Barcelona, a promenade that descends from Plaça Catalunya to the Columbus Statue and the port. It is also the most visited by tourists and very busy at any time of day. It serves as a border between the neighbourhoods El Gòtic (the part of Ciutat Vella with the most monuments) and El Raval (the old outskirts of the city, nowadays the city's most multicultural area). Strolling up and down La Rambla is a ritual pastime, and you mustn't miss emblematic places like the open-air market Mercat de la Boquería and the opera house Gran Teatre del Liceu.
Barceloneta: this old neighbourhood of fishermen and people whose work was related to the sea is today one of the city's most popular and widely-visited neighbourhoods. Full of tapas bars, fish restaurants, narrow streets and small houses, it opens onto the first beach along Barcelona's 4.2 km of coast. There is a lively atmosphere at any time of day and its neighbourhood fiestas, in September, are quite an event.
Montjuïc: between Plaça Espanya and the sea, in the southernmost part of the city, you will find the mountain of Montjuïc, which is the site of a large number of museums and cultural facilities: Poble Espanyol, Caixafòrum, Fundació Miró, Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya, etc. It is another of the city's not-to-be-missed viewpoints. At its foot, you will find a large exhibition and congress complex and the well-known Montjuïc fountain, famous for its light and music shows, especially in summer.
Tibidabo: the city's other mountain, it offers excellent views of Barcelona. It is the highest point of the Sierra de Collserola, an ideal place for walking, playing sports, picnicking, etc. The Tibidabo Amusement Park is a beloved place of locals, as is the Tramvía Blau, an old tram that is now a tourist attraction which continues making the same journey from Av. Tibidabo to the top.
- Sagrada Família: the masterpiece of architect Antoni Gaudí, it is a Modernist religious temple still under construction in the midst of the Eixample neighbourhood. It is expected to be completed in 2030 and has become an undisputed symbol of Barcelona. It is the city's most visited monument.
Parc de la Ciutadella: it is the green lung of the city centre. Built in the 19th century, its variety of hundred-year-old trees and different elements (the waterfall, the lake, the gazebo, etc.) make it a spot for gathering, relaxing, playing sports, organising events, etc. highly appreciated by locals and visitors. The entrance to the Barcelona Zoo is located in the park and can be accessed from the street Wellington.
Passeig de Gràcia: main avenue of the Eixample neighbourhood, it houses symbolic buildings like La Pedrera, la Casa Batlló and El Palau Robert. It also concentrates the city's most elegant shops and connects to the centre of the neighbourhood of Gràcia, the most bohemian neighbourhood of Barcelona with a large number of theatres, cinemas, restaurants and plazas and a lively nightlife.
Park Güell: a city garden project commissioned by Eusebi Güell to Gaudí. It was never completely finished, but it resulted in a colourful public park full of the most characteristic elements of Modernism, integrating its architecture in a natural space. Its large central plaza is a luxurious viewpoint over Barcelona, and the park also houses the Casa-Museu Gaudí.
- Santa Maria del Mar: known as the cathedral of La Ribera and located on the Passeig del Born, it is an emblem of the neighbourhood. Built during the 14th century thanks to the help of parishioners, it is one of the most perfect examples of Gothic architecture and an exceptionally beautiful basilica.
