The Boqueria is not to be missed. Amazing displays of seafood, jamon, fruits and veggies. Try to eat there at a food counter and have a local beer and wonderful tapas.

I think they have "El Corte Ingles" department store. We visited this department store in Cordoba and Lisbon. Multi-floors with all kinds of merchandise, including groceries, including fresh seafood and meats. Women especially love to go there.

My husband carries an old wallet in his back pocket with worthless Caribbean money. So far no takers anywhere in Europe, including Barcelona. Ladies carrying purses should hang them around their necks while in a restaurant, not on the next chair.
