1. Explore Gaudí's architecture: Even though it may be cold, Antoni Gaudí's unique architecture, such as the Sagrada Família, Park Güell, and Casa Batlló, remains impressive. Moreover, many of these places are adorned with festive lights during the winter season.
2. Stroll down Las Ramblas: This famous boulevard always has a lively atmosphere, regardless of the season. You can enjoy shops, restaurants, and street artists while immersing yourself in local life.
