Barceloneta Beach
The first thing that stands out upon arriving at Casino Barcelona is its unbeatable location. Located right in front of Barceloneta Beach, the oldest, most famous, and most central in the city, this coastal area stands out for its lively and festive atmosphere, even featuring sports courts. Additionally, its proximity to the best restaurants in the area makes it a must-visit for those in Barcelona, as it offers one of the best outdoor experiences.

Basilica of the Sagrada Familia
One of the great news in the architectural and cultural world was the completion of the tallest tower of Gaudí’s masterpiece, the Basilica of the Sagrada Familia. The historic work has been under construction for 144 years and, although an important part was completed earlier this year, there are still works pending inside, and it is estimated that the construction of the Glory Facade will be ready by the early 2030s.
Despite (or rather, because of) its constant construction, the Basilica continues to be one of the main tourist attractions of the city. It is the ultimate exponent of Catalan modernist architecture and is visited by thousands of tourists year after year. If, besides poker, you are interested in incorporating the culture of one of the most attractive cities in the world, this is a visit that cannot be left out of your itinerary.
