in barcelona there are a lot of pubs,discos but my advice is to go to disco pub,the discos are expensive. there aren't many nonuments to visit only that one who has done gaudi,my favourite is sagrada familia. if you come to bercelona surely you will enjoy,the first week that i was here i couldn't distinguish the day by the night
