Since then, it has been the traditional gateway to Spain. Through it entered Romans, Arabs and Christians, as well as the many diverse cultures, which came to enrich its heritage.<\/p>\n<p>The traces of this history and diversity can be followed as you walk through the old town; through its Gothic Quarter, built on the Roman ruins; through its art-nouveau Eixample district, presided over by Gaud\u00ed\u2019s exuberant architecture. The rich architectural legacy makes Barcelona the only city in the world with nine UNESCO World Heritage Sites.<\/p>\n<p>These characteristics have made Barcelona into a first-class tourist destination and the ideal setting for congresses. The good position of the city as a destination of congresses is increasingly more evident, and recently the Catalan capital has been placed in third position in the prestigious ranking drawn up by the ICCA (International Congress and Convention Association).<\/p>\n<p>After the congress, savour the city\u2019s super range of gastronomy in the most sophisticated restaurants, which serve up outstanding innovative cuisine. The highest levels of excellence in gastronomy have been achieved through a new generation of chefs who have revolutionised Catalan cuisine and earned it pride of place throughout the world. Currently 20 of the city\u2019s restaurants have been awarded with a Michelin star.<\/p>\n<p>Barcelona is a cosmopolitan city where you can live unique experiences such as an exclusive visit to an art museum; a master class with a famous chef or enjoy the Shopping Line with more than 200 shops. Throughout the year, the city\u2019s hosts a number of top-class sporting events, such as the Conde de God\u00f3 Tennis Tournament, the Formula 1 World Championships and regular football matches at the famous Barcelona Football Club (Bar\u00e7a).<\/p>\n<p>Would you like to live the magic of Barcelona? The excellent network of flights and its international airport, located only 15 minutes from the city will easily bring you to this Mediterranean city.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"one withsmallpadding ppb_header \" style=\"text-align:left;padding:40px 0 40px 0;\" >\n<div class=\"standard_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"page_content_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"inner\">\n<div style=\"width:100%\">\n<h2 class=\"ppb_title\" style=\";text-align:left;\">Useful links<\/h2>\n<div class=\"ppb_header_content\">\n<p>Tourist Information for Spain:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barcelonaturisme.com\/wv3\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.barcelonaturisme.com\/<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.barcelona-tourist-guide.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.barcelona-tourist-guide.com\/<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.aboutbarcelona.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.aboutbarcelona.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"ppb_gallery_grid one\" style=\"\">\n<div class=\"standard_wrapper\">\n<div id=\"17114677171073835880\" class=\"portfolio_filter_wrapper gallery four_cols contain\" data-columns=\"4\">\n<div class=\"element grid  classic4_cols\">\n<div class=\"one_fourth gallery4 static filterable gallery_type animated1\"><a class=\"fancy-gallery\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dexeusfoundation.org\/46dexeuscongress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/barcelona_02-1.jpg\" data-caption=\"Aerial view of Barcelona Eixample residencial district and famous basilica, Spain.
