Why not book Barcelona hotels with Hotel Direct and treat your family to an exciting city break in the Spanish capital? Barcelona has been described as one of the most child friendly cities in Europe, due to its wealth of family friendly attractions, events and activities.
Here are some of the fantastic things to enjoy in Barcelona with your children:
Barcelona Zoo: Considered one of the best Zoos in Spain, Barcelona Zoo has a range of fantastic animals and exhibitions to both amuse and educate your children. Come along and see Snowflake, the albino Gorilla or the brilliant dolphins. The zoo also has an infant zoo section, where the young ones can be introduced to various animals for the first time. Barcelona Zoo makes for a fantastic day out that the whole family will love.
Barcelona Aquarium: Continuing with the animal theme, The Aquarium of Barcelona offers a fascinating look into the world of the Mediterranean ocean. The attraction is home to around 11,000 animals which are kept in 35 tanks using around 6 million litres of water. Take a walk through the 80 metre long tunnel to get a wonderful view of the animals swimming all around you. If you are feeling brave, parents have the perfect opportunity to show their kids how brave they are by swimming with the sharks.
Tibidabo: This traditional amusement park is over 100 years old and is home to a number of classic rides and stalls. Whilst not quite up to the modern standard of the Disney Park, Tibidabo is an important part of Barcelona, sat upon the highest point in the city and entertaining local families and tourists in equal amounts.
Magic Fountain: This wonderful attraction continues to delight tourists both young and old with its spectacular water displays that feature water, colour and light all combined to music. If you are looking for something to do with the children in the evenings, these displays are truly magical against the clear nigh sky of Barcelona.
