Barcelona responsible tourist destination

Barcelona wants its residents and visitors to enjoy the many attractions that the city offers in a balanced way that respects the environment. So it promotes a model of tourism based on respect for the city’s economic, social, environmental and cultural resources. As a result, and because it is always innovating, Barcelona has established itself as a sustainable tourist destination, with responsibly managed tourism and a cross-cutting strategy which seeks to ensure it is a model that will endure well into the future.

For promoting tourism that shares environmental responsibility between visitors and residents, Barcelona has been accredited with Biosphere certification as a responsible tourist destination.
