Five ways to avoid insulting the locals in Barcelona
The Mediterranean city of Barcelona is a popular choice as a holiday destination. Great food, great architecture, stretches of beaches and a cosmopolitan atmosphere to ensure the Catalan capital, receives millions of visitors annually. However, while it is important to relax and have fun, it is equally important to respect local traditions and customs. Here are some points to consider.
- Barcelona is the capital of the autonomous region of Catalonia, and is considered a country of their own. The natives speak Catalan, one of the two official languages in Catalonia, the other is Castilian Spanish. The Catalans are a proud people, and although the influx of immigrants in Spain means it's likely you'll hear many languages in the downtown, everything is still officially fist Catalan and Spanish second. Many shops and restaurants in the city remind visitors way, with posters in the windows saying that "Catalonia is not Spain" and the first trick is to embrace the language. Many modern guides are equipped with the basic translation glossaries with the phonetic pronunciation for the day after talks a day. If little or no knowledge of Spanish, it would be unwise to try to venture a Catalan because little is certainly appreciated. Even if a simple please and thank you can go a long way to form, in Barcelona.
- Many people associate Spain with sun, sea and sangria, but the truth is that the Spanish drink is more common in other regions of Spain. This does not mean you can not fill your glass with Sangria in Barcelona, restaurants and many tourists jumping on the ignorance of tourists and to sell more value in red wine sangria all through loans. However, Catalan Sangria is made with local produce "Cava Penedès by, and is similar to champagne. Impress your friends and guests to request a Catalan pitcher of sangria and win praise.
- Another hypothesis, seemingly universal when visiting Spain is to go see a bullfight. Bullfights fighting in Spain is certainly frowned upon, and prosecutions have been taken to the government for the process completely banned in the city. First there were two stages where Barcelona, now there is only one - Monumental - the other "Las Arenas" victim of an ambitious building project to transform the structure into a mall. The work has been stalled for over a year, and other monumental meetings are strongly protested against the interviews with tourists ill even make its way to YouTube, for example. Bullfighting is a tradition in southern Spain and Catalonia wants nothing to do with it.
- One pet peeve of local people to see bachelor parties up and down the famous Las Ramblas in putting enormous sombrero. There is nothing remotely Catalan (or Spanish for that matter) about the big hats and Mexico is the dream of owning a gift shop to find a group of men wandering through their stores. While we're on the subject, one symbol Spain that could disturb the neighbors is typically Spanish shirt with the silhouette of a bull, carrying in the front. If you do not need to remember on the run above bull, the bull is a typical example of Spain and Spanish - the Catalans have their own logo of animals to mock the testosterone fueled Toro Bravo - Ass!
- Finally, there is too much of a nightmare for local and other things we offer here, but tourists looking to enjoy a night Flamenco dancing is encouraged to save their place of birth, Andalusia. Northern Spain has a wealth of flamenco, and although there are sufficient facilities to satisfy the tourists eager thirst, do not expect an authentic experience - rather a manifestation of more value to many other tourists. The locals dance the Sardana in Catalonia is - Make their way to Cathedral Square on Sunday morning to see real dance moves Catalan!
Following these tips before embarking on holiday in Barcelona you will enjoy yourself and enjoy the culture, but not to the detriment of its inhabitants!
