The Bages region has been home to vineyards since the 16th century. However, in recent years, the wines produced there have obtained the DO (Designation of Origin) Pla de Bages quality seal. The local grape variety of the region is picapoll, which produces a fruity white wine with a fresh bouquet and a wonderful texture and personality, as you will discover on the DO Pla de Bages Wine Route.
Entering the club of properties inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List is a highly restricted privilege, since the criteria of its selection committee are incredibly strict. That’s what makes it so impressive that the regions of Barcelona boast a total of 9 World Heritage buildings. They’re all must-see attractions for architecture enthusiasts!
We all enjoy visiting castles, but the experience is even more satisfying if the castle in question is associated with a legend. There are a good number of castles in the regions of Barcelona whose walls whisper tales of centuries past: chronicles of princesses and bandits, tales of animals capable of making a huge army flee in terror, or of evil witches... If your curiosity is awakened, pay close attention, because after reading these legends you’ll be eager to visit the places where they are said to have occurred, many moons ago.
