Come to Barcelona without buying souvenirs and hand gifts that you will regret!

When I return to China this year, I have done a lot of homework, and what souvenirs to bring to my friends and relatives. Here are some souvenirs I chose in the first year:

The first is eating and drinking

1️⃣ham

Going to Spain without eating Spanish ham is like going to Beijing without eating Peking duck. The shop has a variety of quality of Iberian ham, the staff will be very enthusiastic to let you taste each ham, if you have any taste needs can also talk to the staff, they will be very patient to recommend, after tasting selected 28.9€/100g one, the overall grease level and taste of the mouth are impeccable.

Because China also has a very famous Jinhua ham, my family does not like it very much, and this kind of ham is better to cut and eat immediately (I have a whole thigh at home), so I did not buy this for the time being. (But in my classmates' experience, buying a few bags in the supermarket is no problem).

2️⃣vicens

The store has been in business since 1775 and has a history of more than 200 years. We bought it on the first floor of the British Palace of Catalonia in Barcelona, and we can apply for tax refund together. A chocolate nougat will be given to the whole house for 50 euros (I went there in early May, I don't know if there are any left now). We asked which ones were not too sweet, and the clerk recommended them and let us try them.

The more famous marzipan, I personally think the original is really delicious, so I bought some gift boxes for my girlfriends and younger siblings to share.


3️⃣ Spanish Sangria

I saw the gift box at the airport, feel very suitable for giving people, about 11 euros a box.

Then there's the souvenir.

1️⃣ Refrigerator magnets from Sagrada Familia and Casa Mira

At first, I always felt that this leek would not cut my head, and then looked for a long time, or think that this refrigerator sticker as a souvenir to friends is the most appropriate, so I went to buy some, buy back a light, to my own beauty! So far to friends are very happy, really sweet scene. Really buy, don't buy regret series. Gaudi's three-piece refrigerator sticker is really beautiful!! Although 9.5 euro 1 is still a little bit of pain, but see the flashlight light on the above refracted the beautiful light and shadow, or feel very worth it!!


2️⃣ souvenir shop

There are many small shops in the Gothic District, most of which have chicken ribs, but I have also visited a few good ones, but this visit is too anxious, there is no record
More recommended a store (bracelet, moving brick refrigerator magnets have).

Mercilona is a print-oriented souvenir and gift shop. The shop window layout is particularly beautiful, happened to pass by will not help but go in to see.

Mercilona is a combination of Merci (" thank you "in Catalan) and Barcelona. The shop works with different illustrators, and the prints are full of artists' illustrations of Barcelona's history, landmarks, artists and food.

There are du's postcards, greeting cards, decorative paintings, paper. There are also notebooks, coasters, trinkets, etc.

3️⃣ Some cosmeceuticals

The reason why I did not choose to bring this year is that it needs a long-term choice, and I think that the first time I go back, I should bring something more memorable.

Because this is my first time to return to China, I asked my friends before: I don't want food, I want souvenirs. Maybe there is some confusion about eating this kind of food: when you eat it, it will be gone, and when you keep it, it will be ruined, so I think souvenirs are more long-term gifts,So, fridge magnets can really be bought!
