    Barcelona, one of the most famous cities in the world, is the next stop on The Spanish-Speaking World Tour! You might already know a lot about Spain's most international city but I've tried to included lots of information here that you might not be aware of about the most popular parts of the city, such as the Sagrada Familia, Parc Güell and La Rambla! Most importantly, of course, this will be a great episode for helping you to further your Spanish listening and really improve. I speak quite a bit about the history of Barcelona, which means there's lots of past tense used and also lots of dates, which are always something Spanish students find difficult. Like in the last episode, I've also included a bit of Catalan for you, as it's the other main language spoken in the area.
