Sitges Tourism

Sitges It is a beautiful city that is in the Golden Coast, in Catalonia, and which has become one of the favorite tourist destinations in our country, especially thanks to the International Film Festival of Catalonia (one of the most important in Europe), its spectacular beaches as it is a tourist destination of A reference for the gay scene, although there are tourists of all kinds, sex and nationality. The closest airport is Barcelona, ​​and in about 20 minutes by train you can get there.

It is clear that what most attracts the attention of Sitges is its beaches, but it also has many other spectacular places. One of the things I liked the most was their houses, painted white and with a Andalusian style or very marked Lanzarote. A city with a lot of charm that will welcome you as if you were one more and that will have you wandering around without stopping and enjoying each street and each landscape. Their carnivals They are also very important, not yet like those of Cádiz or the Canary Islands, but they do have more public and recognition each year.

As for monuments and other places you can see in Sitges, there is the Church of San Bartolomé and Santa Tecla, which houses two Gothic tombs from 1317 and 1322. You also have the Can Llopis Romantic Museum, a beautiful place where you can see what life was like for a Catalan family during the years of romance since it is represented there. Another very interesting place is the Santiago Rusiñol's House-Workshop, a very important writer and artist in the area.

The last building that I want to recommend is the Sitges Town Hall, a spectacular place located where in medieval times there was a castle. At the end I leave what is probably the most beautiful thing in Sitges: its beaches. 17 spectacular beaches that run along the coast and form a unique landscape in which to relax in the sun and escape from the stress of your day to day. Just tell you that during the summer there are numerous parties and activities, so check the events before going to see if you can enjoy any of them.
