Processions in Spanish cities are especially spectacular. Some of the people participating in procession wear the nazareno or the penitential robe. It has several parts – a tunic, „capriote“ (a conical shaped hood) used to hide the face of person wearing the nazareno. Sometimes person also wears a cloak too. The nazareno robe is of medieval origin. (via Semana Santa | TraditionsCustoms.com)

“Tapas 24” Barcelona
Tapas 24 is hands down my favorite tapas restaurants in Barcelona. Not only is the sangria vastly superior to almost anywhere else but their tapas are to die for. The menu changes a bit from day to day but I’ve never had anything there that I didn’t like!
Some of my favorites are pictured above:
ham, cheese, aioli sandwich
chocolate mousse and toast
and lamb kebobs
a good advice ;)

Madrid apartment - Benefiting from a truly central position in Madrid Old Town, this one bedroom apartment of about 35 sq.mt sleeping up to 2 persons is situated in a residential building in Opera district, steps from the Royal Theatre and Plaza de Oriente. Metro stop Opera (green and red line) is within walking distance; the Royal Palace and Plaza Mayor are in close proximity.
This two bedroom apartment of about 80 sq.mt accommodate up to 8 persons and is located in a residential building (with elevator) Barcelona’s city center, at about 5 minutes from Universidad and Paseo de Gracia metro stations. The area, perfect to enjoy the city’s thriving nightlife, is rich in clubs and restaurants, with the university and Plaza de Catalunya at hand.
The MACBA or Barcelona Contemporary Art Museum by Richard Meier. The museum is located in one of Barcelona’s congested medieval street systems, and was an intervention to open the city up. The site carves a huge plaza where a tiny street crowded on both sides by buildings would have been. It’s a nice breather when you arrive, and now that it’s been here awhile, somehow has settled in well. It feels like it belongs even though the super-clean style of Meier is very different from most of Barcelona.
