BARCELONA HIGHLIGHTS
With the Mediterranean Sea lapping at its urban beaches, brilliant Gothic and modern architecture and a party-loving population haunting some of the hippest bars in Europe, Spain’s second city is deliciously appealing. After decades of oppression, the country shook itself free of a dictatorship in the 1980s and has been making up for lost time ever since, creating a culture of openness and optimism—Spain was one of the first countries to legalize same-sex marriage. Barcelona’s gay and lesbian life is booming, with lively venues serving everyone from twinks to bears to lipstick lesbians. The L’Eixample neighborhood—or Gayxample as it’s called—might be the hub for restaurants, bars and saunas, but attractions of interest to gay and lesbian people are spread all over the very walkable city center.
Which of Gaudí’s wild architectural projects are worth visiting? Which party has the hottest women-loving-women? Where can you kick a soccer ball around with a few of your fellow queers? Where can you see art by Broodthaers, Klee and Basquiat? The Bump! Barcelona Travel Guide has all the LGBT answers.
