10 places worth visiting in Barcelona

10 places worth visiting in Barcelona

This is a question that has often been put to me in the past; I decided to share with you the answer on the leblog Tips vacation. Here is a partial list of points of interest that I urge you to visit on a short break or even extended vacation in Barcelona in Catalonia.

1. Las Ramblas, the legendary and popular must-Barcelona can not miss with a visit to the "barrio Gothico" neighborhood and Sainte-Eulalie Barcelona Cathedral.
2. Take a ride in the old tram (Blue Tram) and the funicular up fameuxTibidabo. Tibidabo is a valley with stunning views of Barcelona. Once at the top, there is an amusement park for children, a Catholic church and communications towers (Torre de Collserola) by Norman Foster that overlooks the entire region; it is the highest point hilltop with breathtaking views of Barcelona.
3. The Picasso Museum (allow 2 full hours) with a stroll around the museum.
4. A little shopping on Passeig de Gracia (editor's note: take the "shopping bus" for returning to the hotel in peace).
   
5. In case you are not very shopping, a visit to the Casa Mila is required (also known as "La Pedrera"), Casa Batllo, and Sagrada Familia: three masterpieces of Gaudi. (note: do not take the elevator to the Sagrada Familia, and prefer instead the stairs).
6. Park Güell with the monuments of Gaudí in the park (note: a scene from the Spanish Apartment was turned down).
7. Take a ride on a tourist bus. It costs about 20 € but it is really worth. In addition it is possible to get off the bus to visit Barcelona throughout the course during the day.
8. Imperative to Barcelona to see a match of FC Barcelona at the Camp Nou, one of the largest stadiums in the world. (note: it is possible to find places on the same day a few minutes before the game, check the location of the seats in the stadium prior to purchase).
9. The Magic Fountains of Montjuic (show sounds, lights and water jets). Fountains starting at 20:30 until 23:00 on weekends from October to May, then the days start getting longer.
10. The Port Olympic, later in the evening to discover these little bars.
