With so much to see and do in a city as vibrant and dynamic as Barcelona, shopping might be the last thing on your list. Indeed, once you\u2019ve spent time in the La Sagrada Familia, Park G\u00fcell, the Gothic Quarter and La Ramblas, the chances are that you\u2019ll be ready to sample some authentic Catalan food<\/a> and hit the hay, ready for another day of city sight-seeing.<\/p>\n

But if you\u2019ve still got some energy left, then Barcelona is the perfect place for some retail therapy. You can spend all day (and a small fortune) flicking through pieces from designers such as Luis Vuitton and Stella McCartney in the Passeig de Graci\u00e0 shopping line and some time in La Maquinista, where you\u2019ll find more than 200 outlets including an Apple Store. However, if you\u2019re looking for a trinket or two, there are other places to check out.<\/p>\n

The most commonly-purchased Barcelona souvenir is a mosaic animal, but if you want to buy a thoughtful and memorable gift to immortalise your visit, check out these original gift shops in Barcelona:<\/p>\n
