Cath, the mom behind Passports and Adventures, always wanted to visit Barcelona. So, when her husband was planning a trip there to see a concert, she was more than happy to tag along with their kid. During their time in the city, they took the Montjuic Cable Car to visit the Montjuic Castle, an old military fortress dating back to the 1600s. They also visited Parc Guell, a public park system made up of various gardens and architectural landmarks, located on Camel Hill. Cath was very excited to see La Sagrada Familia, one of the most beautiful and iconic buildings in the city. For their son’s interest, they visited the Barcelona Aquarium and the Barcelona Zoo, both of which are incredible experiences for animal lovers.
