For the love of football The Gamper's brilliant idea to give the Club the city's name became an integrating element for the immigrants coming from other Spanish regions. The Barcelona supporters increase all over the world. As the Barsa hymn goes, "All the stadium is a clamour. We are the blue and claret people. No matter where we come from. Both from South and North. But now we all agree. A flag unites us all. Blue and claret in the wind. A valiant cry. We have a name everyone knows: Barça, Barça, Barça!”
Barcelona, with about 4 million inhabitants, is located right in the centre of the coastline. In order to sightsee the city, the best thing to do is to get on the Bus Turístic. You will be able to enjoy a general view of the city as well as visit the most important museums, emblematic buildings and stroll around the Ramblas or Passeig de Gràcia.
The ideal seasons to visit Barcelona are Spring and Autumn. From March on the heat starts to build up. More and more people use motorcycles, bikes and public transport to move around the city, since traffic is dense in spite of the ring roads that surround the Catalan capital.
