For the nighthawk, the NYT has published articles on activities after midnight in 10 European cities. They aren'te exhaustive lists, but give you a good starting point. Here's the link to the Barcelona article, and the others can be accessed by the "related" link to the left of the article page. http://tinyurl.com/66pwfc
Thanks for the link. I have now added The New York Times travel section to my favorites.
went to this link and ZoneAlarm warned me that this is a "high risk website known to distribute spyware." But I AM interested in the nightlife!
Hardly likely the NY Times is going to distribute spyware! Zonealarm (as it's noted for doing) is being overly cautious.
I've been using the NY Times website everyday for the last 10 years and and have never had problems with spyware.
