St. Jordi is here!

sanjordi.jpgHappy St. Jordi's day to everyone! A couple of days ago we told you about the legend and the fact that at the end of the day, April you won't see a woman without a rose. But there is more to come. If you are staying in a Barcelona Hotel or one of the many charming Barcelona apartments you can participate in the St Jordi's day festivities. For those, who are not here, you might want to plan your romatic Barcelona weekend for next year at the time of St. Jordi's. Early this morning florists and book sellers built up their little stands, not only in downtown Barcelona, but every few meters on all main streets of the city. Not only book and flower shops participate in this tradition. Even the public transport TMB initiated a competition for the best short story on the bus or metro, dedicated to St. Jordi. So, if you're still undecided on where to go this evening, there is an event right next to your Barcelona accommodation, for sure. To find out more about the events this year, log on the St. Jordi's Day BCN.es page. This also gives you an idea of what to expect should you decide to join in next year!
