Lovely little book with excellent photos of a variety of Barcelona's major treasures. I bought my original copy in a Barcelona museum, and liked it so much that when I gave that copy to a friend I ordered another one from . (BTW, do NOT buy a used book from Kota Books if you really want it to be "Like New" as they claim: they shipped mine in a very thin envelope that arrived ripped and the book chewed, plus it had a full-page handwritten inscription from a prior owner--refused partial credit or refund.) While it is paperbound, the photo pages are heavy stock, easily as good as a hardbound coffee-table book. I had to doublecheck the copy to make sure it was paperbound, as it does not stand out in memory that way. (I debated in Barcelona whether to buy it because of its weight and having to lug it home in my suitcase). In addition to the beautiful pictures, the inclusion of several key maps is very helpful. While not a comprehensive guide or index to Barcelona's many gems, this book is an excellent and compact collection of the major sights.
so happy to find this book on . saw it in the barcelona airport and loved the pictures. photos reminded me of my visit there. i did not buy there, and could not find in the bookstores at home. nice quality book, without being hard bound. would highly recommend.
Saw the book in Barcelona and took a picture of it so I could buy it on when I got home. Great book!
condition great but small size is disappointing.
After buying a copy in Barcelona, we liked it so much we purchased a copy for a friend who is wanting to visit Barcelona!
