Barcelone

 
Barcelona is the capital of the region of Catalonia in Spain. It is also a magical city of fanciful buildings, never ending nightlife and home to tasty tapas.
 

Language

Barcelona’s first language is Catalan, not Spanish, or Castellano, as most Catalan people prefer to say! Most signs are indicated both in Catalan and in Spanish. Every inhabitant speaks Spanish though – and some speak English or French.
