Close to our apartment in Barcelona is El Monumental, the bull-fighting arena. We went to see a fight and experience a part of the Spanish culture. It turns out that bull-fighting is not heavily promoted in Barcelona as it is indeed a very violent sport, but it is still held for tourists’ enjoyment. Tickets vary from 23€ to over 100€ depending on how close to the arena and whether you wish to be in the shade or in the sun. Entry into the stadium and nearby museum on non-fight days is 5€.
