Best cities in the World
I just returned from Barcelona, and i have to say that it's the most wonderful city in the world! The architect Antoni Gaudi built some of the most stunning buildings I've ever seen. The view from his Prac Guell is amazing. Barcelona is culturally diverse, with artists from all over the world creating a vibrant art scene. The city officials are working hard to help the homelessness and to keep the city clean. I can't think of anything negative to say about Barcelona.
comment
I basically agree with you that Barcelona is an amazing city, but there is one negative. The city has a high unemployment rate, which has caused a bit of an increase in the crime rate. I hate to say it , but if you're a tourist, you have to be careful about pickpockets. Of course, every large city with tourists has the same problem. Other than that, I think Barcelona is one of the best cities in the world - magnificent architecture, friendly people and incredible food.
