Strolling along Las Ramblas through Barcelona&rsquo;s atmospheric Gothic Quarter, past the bustling Boqueria food market, and on to elegant Place de Catalunya is one of the planet&rsquo;s great pedestrian pleasures. Save time to explore the creations of visionary architect Antoni Gaud&iacute;, including his hallucinogenic, and as yet unfinished Sagrada Familia basilica, as well shopping on Passeig de Gracia, and the beaches and caf&eacute;s of trendy Barceloneta, a haven for locals on hot summer weekends. <br /><br /><strong>Travel Tip:</strong> It&rsquo;s not too late: Passengers traveling on Lufthansa will find a full range of shops for souvenir hunting in Terminal 1 of Barcelona Airport&mdash;including retailers selling branded FC Barcelona goods.
