 Barcelona isn't crime ridden
I've been to Barcelona early this year and I had no problems. I just think that like in any big city, you have to be careful.
I am not sure "filippoQ" where in Barcelona you were staying but I don't feel Barcelona is crime ridden though I have heard of people been robbed in Las Ramblas. I mean they had been pickpocketed as they were carrying luggage. I think many tourists fall pray to crime because of their unawareness to the fact that tourists are always a target. |
