Theres that big ol Chapel. Well worth it. If there is a big football match on at new camp go to that. Buy a lonely planet to get the most out of it though

You can enjoy strolling in Las Ramblas with all the flower stools and stop for a refreshing drink in any of the many outdoor cafes before going to admire the best gaudi's architecture with the impressive church of Sagrada Familia (look at it in google images if you don't know what it is, it's so impressive! and it's not even finished yet!), Park Guell, Casa Mila and Casa Batllo... If you like football, you can watch a match of Barcelona Football Team (which will be proclaimed the best in Europe in 3 weeks time if we can beat Arsenal) in the biggest football stadium in Europe. But make sure you keep some energy to enjoy the city's night life! Afterward, you can take a break from the big city and go just a few km north to spend a relaxing week in the Costa Brava, where the rocky beaches will leave you speechless and also you'll be able to stimulate your cultural side by visiting Dali's house in Figueres. Also, check out for festivals in the area for the daes you'll be there for, there are literally festivals going on every single week of the year in places not too far from the city.
