Top reasons to visit the Gothic quarter in Barcelona in October

October visit in Barcelona’s famous Gothic quarter

Great views of Barcelona

In today’s post I would like to give you an idea for a short weekend autumn trip in Europe. With Halloween coming close, going to Barcelona’s Gothic quarter is a great idea. You can enjoy the city’s streets and history, as well as visit the famous cathedral.

Reasons to visit Barcelona in autumn

You should visit this city during autumn season, because:

weather is great – not too hot as in the summer but still warm enough to walk around
flights will be cheaper off-season as beach tourists are already home
Halloween is in October and you can see the Gothic quarter to get you in a spooky mood
you can see Gaudi’s masterpieces
food in Barcelona is great – make sure to try their churros
Barcelona is a great city any time of year
