During this trip to Barcelona, I chose to stay in Sabadell, a historic and culturally rich town located a bit farther from the city center. This charming town is worth exploring, with many attractive tourist spots, including the magnificent Església de Sant Fèlix, known for its exquisite architectural style and historical significance. Additionally, Sabadell's town center boasts delightful squares and shopping areas, allowing visitors to easily enjoy local cuisine and shopping experiences. However, what impressed me the most was the warmth of the locals. When I was struggling to communicate in a convenience store, a local person kindly offered to help us translate, and despite the communication barriers, the store staff greeted us with smiles, eager to assist. One of Sabadell's most famous attractions is the renowned Hotel Balneari de Caldes de Montbui. This hotel is famous for its natural thermal spa facilities, providing the perfect place for visitors to relax and rejuvenate. The thermal waters in the hotel are rich in minerals, which are very beneficial to health, attracting many travelers seeking relaxation and healing. Whether exploring historical sites, enjoying local cuisine, or relaxing, Sabadell offers an unforgettable experience for visitors.
