If you are trying to think about whether or not to make Barcelona a location for a Christmas break, you could do worse. To be fair, Brussels and Prague both perhaps have better Christmas markets and both are also very good seasonal locations.
Barcelona though is excellent as a venue for a long weekend or Christmas Shopping breaks and most shops and restaurants stay open
for most of the season. There is always something to do and see in fact in Barcelona every day of the year.
Barcelona Shopping is really a big plus for the city during the Christmas period and if you are making plans now, then you could do worse by visiting Barcelona. There are so many shops and covering all of the major fashions and names, but you can also find a significant number of small independent stores, whilst the Barri Gotic area has a variety of unusual and more unique products.
NYC travel is excellent for Xmas shopping but if you want to stay or to travel in Europe and combine Xmas shopping with an excuse to get away then I'd recommend Barcelona. Flights depend on your departure location although most major airlines fly into Barcelona International airport. For Barcelona accommodation there are a few providers for holiday apartments and plenty of hotels.
