Barcelona Shopping

Shopping

In keeping with its reputation for being Europe's capital of cutting-edge urban cool, Barcelona abounds with great shopping opportunities. From chain fashion shops to flea markets and from trendy design stores to offbeat, locally made couture, the Catalan capital is a shoppers' paradise. Tip: more Most major stores stay open all day on weekdays and are open Saturday mornings; small independent shops will traditionally close for siesta between 2 and 5pm. Almost all stores are closed on Sunday.
