#8 BARCELONA, SPAIN
 |
| PIC: 'Razzmatazz' nightclub |
The
Catalan capital, caters to night owls like no other city. Whilst the
region maintains a certain degree of independence through its status
as an autonomous
community,
it certainly parties with in enthusiastic Spanish fashion.
For
many, the night will begin in one of the Las Ramblas tourist traps or
in one of the bars along the beach front. The tourist traps are
okay, as long as you know what you're getting into, but cheaper
options can be found off the main tourist strips.
Alternatively,
some will start the night with one of the many backpacker bar crawls
that are hawked endlessly during the day.
Then it's onto the clubs.
Clubs
in Barcelona don't open til late and don't close til early in the
morning – so expect to see the sun in the sky when you emerge at
closing time!
The
best clubs are on, or near, the beachfront. 'Razzmatazz' is the king
of clubs in Barcelona, but other clubs like 'Opium' also have plenty
to offer, with all musical tastes catered for.
After
over-indulging the night before, you can recover swimming and basking
in the sun on the man-made, but quite nice, beach at Barceloneta.
