Which city shall I visit in September?

Question

I am thinking of going away in the first two weeks of September. First to Rome for a week, then to either Madrid or Barcelona...but which one?

I have been to Barcelona before in 2001, but didn't have the best of weekends there, and have always wanted to 'put this right.'

However, I haven't been to Madrid before, and visiting a completely new city always gives me a buzz. It is a place which has always intrigued me.

Which one should I go for?

Answer 1

well then you've answered your own question . . I personally would remain in Italy, go to Naples, Ischia, Capri, Sorrento, it's beautiful that time of year plus the food is amazing . . . why would anyone want to go to spain, there's NOTHING to eat there?

Answer 2

Barcelona is truly unique and a world class city, but I'd still opt for Madrid due to it's culture, museums and a side trip to Toledo (one of the greatest ancient towns in the world).

Answer 3

If you don't know Madrid, it's better that city, cause always it's better to know other place... and in Madrid there are a lot of things to do and monuments and museums to see. near Madrid (1 hour +-) are small cities like Toledo, Avila or Segovia very very beautiful

Answer 4

Madrid sounds a pretty awesome place to go.. and if you've never been, even better! :-D

Answer 5

DEFINITELY MADRID!

its an amazing, vibrant city with some of the best museums in the world. Then get on a coach 4 a while and visit salamanca, its amazing also
