The best building in the world is in Barcelona.. a gaudi's one (according to my taste is not the most famous) actually probably three out of the five best building (where people can live) are in Barcelona...
If you want dead monument.. Egypt is robably the best or Jordan or even Greece and Rome.. if you want gorgeous and amzing buildings where people can live...Barcelona...
If you go this year I guess I will be there just one weekend..but after summer.. I will probably be there...
Late night is great..absolutely great.. given that there is a lot of different kinds of night depending on the part of the city... There are some specific types of going out that are better in other parts of Spain (tapas nights better in Andalucia) or even Germany (rave parties probably better in Germany). Other than that...probably London , Istambul and Berlin are on the top five with Barcelona...

I personally do not find any of the facades pleasant....You like one or the other or neither.. Very diffciult to like both.. indeed.
You know my tastes.. amazing...
Yes.. casa batllo.. my screensaver if I ever put one...
Best building in the world by far .. million of years... ahead..
