</div><div style="text-align: justify;">In this update we want to highlight the next festival events so you can plan your trip in advance.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">During these festivals accommodation prices in hotels sky rocket – but our apartments, guesthouses and B&B’s are offering affordable self-contained accommodation, but you need to book in advance to be assured of accommodation!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Festival highlights:</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">(1) Festa Major de Gracia (The Gracia Festival) is a wonderful and colourful street festival in the picturesque Gracia neighborhood of Barcelona.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">It runs from the 15th till 21st of August.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Papu still has accommodation available in and around the Gracia area – but rooms are limited so if your interested please email us now;<b> info@paputravel.com</b></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Barcelona La Merce lasts for around 5 days and is a festival held in honour of Mare de Deu de la Merce, the Patron Saint of Barcelona.</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The festival, which officially first took place in 1902, bids goodbye to the summer with a bang and welcomes in the cooler months of autumn.</div><div style="text-align: justify;">This year 2010 there will be hundreds of different activities taking place in the city.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">One of the festival highlights is the Correfoc (Fire Run)</div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you are going to experience the Correfoc it is highly advisable to take protective clothing because often powerful sparkler fireworks are sprayed into the crowds. People should bring hats, protective glasses and thick long sleeved tops that will protect you from the flying sparklers.</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There is normally 2 types of Correfoc on the same evening. One of them is for the children and is a lot more tame than the "adult" Correfoc which happens later on in the evening</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The Correfoc event takes place at dusk. Normally along and around Via Laietana. The road will be closed off and then opens to "<b>The Devils</b>" . </div><div style="text-align: justify;">Additional festival info:</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Around 24 September, once again Barcelona will celebrate its Annual Festival. The last blast of summer before the autumn starts, La Mercè is the festival of festivals, where, in just a few days there are hundreds of activities like these:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.paputravel.com/index.php/accommodation-finder/" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgh4DmqAc9iUJi39ZwMP8CRGABGz9yROAgCEa_o98x2fE_FbUj81hOnZ1VhtRuu98CEYt7vatof5hWeVL5vhacSYbQe09yiCjAsrYVnnd8v-0Z8j4xAyAHkzPf69iFqYG7Hz_cqovrR-2bD/s320/2+pbcnetaba.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> • Barcelona Acció Musical (Barcelona Musical Action): to hear new sounds</div><div style="text-align: justify;">• Barcelona Street Arts: artists performing amongst the public</div><div style="text-align: justify;">• Festival of tradition: human castles, bigheads, giants and all the festive beasts of the city, accompanied by guests of the Mediterranean</div><div style="text-align: justify;">• Festival of the sky: acrobatic meeting of jets, balloons, ultra lights, etc. </div><div style="text-align: justify;">• The Fire Festival: all kinds of sparks from the musical fireworks to the Fire Run...</div><div style="text-align: justify;">With a long etcetera of more than 500 activities to everyone’s taste.

The show, which lasts 60 minutes, always includes the participation of well-known artists, accompanied by promising young artists for whom the tablaos have historically served as an artistic school and a springboard to fame.<br /><br />The show dynamically presents many of the most important strains of flamenco so that the audience can discover the wealth and variety of this musical art. For the same purpose, the show alternates the spotlight on the different forms of <span style="font-weight: bold;">flamenco: music, song and dance.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">What better way to experience this energy packed traditional dance then with regional cuisine such as Tapas.

</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Everything you can imagine or dream of buying is available in Barcelona from books to jewels, haute couture (both local and international), designer furniture, wines, cava and much more.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Barcelona offers around 35,000 shops. In contrast to London, Berlin or Amsterdam Barcelona is not only fashionable and trendy but also offers reasonable prices.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCiVO86NKV-YspPa_joXJvIzSE8j_FCf0mQ4aFjAKWVyqymVEP6RtP08Hbj-xbjQogKQLlytfazEpL00k42PifCLcgC7W8zKzLHw2WTJxNitEC00_tHOi054KNw0jSGNHdjb1GNVUS0E5I/s1600/6+master+bedroom.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCiVO86NKV-YspPa_joXJvIzSE8j_FCf0mQ4aFjAKWVyqymVEP6RtP08Hbj-xbjQogKQLlytfazEpL00k42PifCLcgC7W8zKzLHw2WTJxNitEC00_tHOi054KNw0jSGNHdjb1GNVUS0E5I/s320/6+master+bedroom.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Typical shopping hours are 10:00 am and close around 8:30 pm from Monday to Saturday. Small shops still have a "siesta" (rest) in the afternoon from about 2:00 pm until 4:30 pm. All trades are allowed to open on 11 Sundays per year. However, most of the shops on Las Ramblas are opened throughout the week, seven days long.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are different rates of sales taxes in Spain and, of course, in Barcelona. For shops it is mostly 16 %, on selected items 4 or 7% and for restaurants and hotels the rate is 7%.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The summer sale period is currently on with discounts between 20-50% off!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

Everything from books to jewels, haute couture (local and international), designer furniture, cava and condoms is on offer. Several markets animate squares around the centre of town.</div>Most of the mainstream stores can be found on a shopping 'axis' that looks something like the hands of a clock set at a quarter to five. From the waterfront it leads up La Rambla through Placa de Catalunya and on up Passeig de Gracia.<br />
<br />
<strong>Papu Travel offers apartments to rent in Passeig de Gracia</strong>.<br />
<br />
The best shopping areas in central <strong>Barcelona</strong> are Passeig de Gracia and the streets to its southwest, including the Boulevard Rosa arcade just north of Carrer d'Arago, and Barri Gotic streets such as Carrer de la Portaferrissa, Carrer de la Boqueria, Carrer del Call, Carrer de la Llibreteria and Carrer de Ferran, and around Placa de Sant Josep Oriol.<br />
<br />
<strong>Barcelona</strong> has great department stores who offer year round sale items as well as major sale periods in summer and winter (check their websites online for exact sale period information). The big department stores (such as El Corte Ingles) and shopping complexes (such as El Triangle) tend to open from 9am or 10am through to 9pm or 10pm at night, Monday to Saturday. Smaller shops often close for a few hours at lunchtime (around 2pm to 4pm).<br />
<br />
Who needs an expensive hotel with small rooms when you and your friends can easily afford a comfortable and centrally located room in a guesthouse, hostel or even a 1 to 3 bedroom self-contained apartment. No need for internet cafes to stay in touch with the family at home – many of our apartments offer wireless broadband internet included in the overnight price.Papu Travelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09573259151345195856noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4127881802129014368.post-61835981519007800742010-06-02T07:04:00.000-07:002010-06-02T07:06:54.444-07:00Rent an apartment, B&B or Guesthouse by the Beach in BarcelonaSince the massive clean-up operation of the <strong>Barcelona beaches</strong> and nearby Olympic marina village undertaken for the 1992 Olympics, this area has become a magnet for <strong>Barcelonans </strong>and visitors alike. A lot of effort goes into maintaining the cleanliness of both sand and sea, which is tested daily, and all beaches have disabled access, lifeguards (in season), sun lounges and showers.<br />
<br />
Let us highlight two of the gorgeous beach areas of <strong>Barcelona</strong> for you.<a href="http://paputravel.com/" rel="attachment wp-att-38"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-38" height="426" src="http://paputravel.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/2-dining-salon.jpg" title="2 dining salon Barcelona" width="640" /></a><br />
<br />
<strong>Nova Icaria</strong><br />
Closest to the Olympic marina, and therefore always crowded, this wide swathe of rough golden sand is great for food goers. There are three spotless beach bars, two immensely popular restaurants on the promenade behind (Mango and Chiringuito de Moncho) and countless bars and restaurants off the Port Olímpic just a short stroll away.<br />
<br />
There are plenty of budget (cheap) through to high-end apartments available for rent at reasonable prices and throughout the year in Nova Icaria and its surrounds.<br />
<br />
<strong>Barceloneta</strong><br />
<br />
Very wide and long and fringed by wooden decking along which lies a series of American-style eateries(pizzas and Tex-Mex mostly) plus the busy Catalan restaurant Agua. Somewhere along its length, the beach becomes San Sebastian (Metro: Barceloneta), a traditional and popular stretch with locals and consequently crowded, noisy and very jolly.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://paputravel.com/"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-39" height="299" src="http://paputravel.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/1_beachview_web.jpg" title="1_beachview Apartment Barcelona " width="448" /></a></div><a href="http://paputravel.com/"></a>Barceloneta is not far from the old city area (Gothic area) with La Ramblas and Plaza Catalunya. Strolling along the boardwalk, passed cafes and shops towards the city centre is a lovely way to spend your afternoon and get out and about with the <strong>Barcelona</strong> people at large.<br />
<br />
There are 1 bedroom <strong>apartments, studios</strong> even 2 bedroom <strong>apartments</strong> available to rent in and around <strong>Barceloneta.</strong><br />
<br />
There is one apartment we know you beach goers will love because it has stunning views of <strong>Barceloneta beach – Lukes Beachview Apartment!</strong><br />
<br />
<strong></strong>Lukes Beachview apartment sleeps up to 4 adults and prices start in low season for €60.00 per night + taxes and service charges.<br />
