With everything that we are seeing on the news about the Catalonia region of Spain, you may be wondering whether it is still safe to travel to the region. There have been a number of protests in the streets and there is general unrest, as this area consider whether or not they want to be politically independent from Spain.

The general opinion is that it is still very safe to travel to all areas of Spain, despite the political situation. You should be careful to avoid any large crowds, just in case there is any kind of demonstration that could potentially turn violent.

Barcelona is the capital of Catalonia and it would be a real shame for tourists to miss out on visiting the beautiful city. At the moment, a visit to the city should feel much the same as usual. Just be aware and monitor the situation in the news.
