8 hours behind Korea
Spain sits at roughly British longitude but keeps Central European time, so the sun sets late — it is still bright at 9 pm in summer, which is why dinner is late.
Entry & visa
90 days in any 180 under the Schengen rules. Watch for pickpockets around Barcelona’s tourist sites.
Worth knowing
In some regions shops still close for a midday siesta, and many restaurants only start dinner service after 8 pm.
