The traveling families are in luck, and it is that the prestigious Lonely Planet has developed a new guide for children, in this case dedicated to Barcelona. Thus, one of the most visited cities in Spain and the world, with countless tourist attractions for the whole family, will no longer have secrets for children.
The Catalan capital is the first Spanish destination that is part of the My First Lonely Planet collection, with a casual and didactic style, with photographs, maps and illustrations ...
This collection is designed for traveling children from eight years of age, but I recommend it because browsing them with the youngest children gives a very good "result", in the sense that it arouses their curiosity and makes them enjoy the destination even before visiting it. Some of the curiosities we discovered in the guide are:
- Why in Barcelona are there so many giants and so many dragons?
- Who designed a house of bones and decorated buildings with broken tiles?
- What world-famous artist exhibited at Café Els quatre gats?
- Where can you see a talking paella and a golden angel?
- Did you know that the famous lollipop was invented in Barcelona, just like the photocopier or the tobacco machine?
- And that only in Barcelona can you tour all of Spain in an hour?
The guide for children My first Lonely Planet in Barcelona It has the subtitle of "Great Secrets for Small Travelers", costs 9'95 euros and has 96 pages full of curiosities about the history, legends, gastronomy ... of the city.
