Phenomenal experience watching El Clasico game right in Barcelona. What a game and what a magical ending winning the league with a 2-0 victory! Now the stadium is still in progress, there is work being done 24/7 to finish it 100% by 2028. The top level seating is still not complete so reason to come visit again soon. All the amenities are here especially for luxury boxes, and every seat in this stadium has an amazing view of the pitch which is what you want when watching games. Arrive a bit early as navigating through the sections takes a while. Also keep in mind no alcoholic beverages are served at games in all of Spain, but there are plenty of places nearby the stadium to pregame before the match. read more

Our experience was excellent. We enjoyed it more than our visit to the Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid. The atmosphere was fun and lively with food, beer, activities, and entertainment. Unfortunately, the stadium is under construction so we couldn't go inside. We booked the Total Experience, included a digital audio guided tour, a VR experience, discount on photos, free short customization at the Barça store, and three penalty kicks against a robokeeper, a crowd favorite. The museum was impressive. Tbh I didn't pay much attention to the audio tour. It wasn't boring, but i had to keep up with my kid who wasn't interested in it. But I did read and learned a lot of the rich history. The museum is very interactive and fun. The Barça store is very cool. Definitely, a trip to Barcelona isn't complete without a visit to the Camp Nou. read more

The place was good. My husband wanted to visit this place because he is a big soccer fan. The fee was ok and it was actually a short tour I expected it to be more. They had a lot of memorable things to look at and you could take a picture with about everything. They did have places to take professional pictures but of course with a fee. The place was very virtual and it just depends on how much time you spend in it to take in the experience. All in all it was not bad although the stadium was closed due to construction. Was it worth it well if you're a football fan yes. And if you're in Spain do it. The bus does stop close to the area as well. read more

The most amazing experience ever. This stadium is so big and mesmerizing. Came for a home game and enjoyed every second of it. The energy was off the charts, from the team and the fans! Seat are comfortable and placed well so there's no obstruction if you're sitting behind someone tall. The store is also a great place to buy souvenirs!! Its 3 stories!! Lots of clothing and books, house goods, etc. read more

The G.O.A.T (greatest of all time) of all futbol (soccer) stadiums! This place is electrifying and chaotic (in a crazy good way). I was here for a Barca vs FC Chelsea match during my trip to Barca. First impression... this place is massive. It holds up to 100k people. As you sit in your chair, you're amazed by the amount of people surrounding you. Everyone chanting, singing, dancing! The Barca pride runs deep within every single person - young or old. I got pretty epic seats. Right on the sidelines, super close to the goal. For only $59! I thought I was gonna get some crappy seats, but these were probably the best seats in the arena! You are right in the heart of it. The game itself was crazy. Ended with a tie 4-4. But what a game it was.. so many crazy shots. There are some food and drink stands inside too. Nothing crazy. You're not coming here for the food though! It's a bit far away from the city center, you'll need to take a metro or taxi to get there. The drive isn't long, but I would recommend dropping off nearby the stadium and walking with the parade of people. Also because as you get closer, traffic gets insane... just walk the 5-10min, you and your driver will both appreciate it. read more

One of the Cathedrals of European Futbol When thinking of must visit soccer stadiums in Europe, there are a dozen or so that come to any hardcore soccer fan's mind. Among them are a few that are always at the top of the list. Having a seating capacity of 99,354 and being the largest stadium in Spain and Europe, Barcelona's Camp Nou is always among the top three if not at the very top of the list. On this trip we were lucky to have tickets to the El Clásico, the match between fierce rivals FC Barcelona and Real Madrid.So we watched the match on the first visit and then went back for a tour of the stadium and its museum the next day! I happened to be a die-hard soccer and FC Barcelona fan, so this was a very special occasion for me, but whether one is a dire-hard fan or not, the visit is worth one's time as there is a lot of history there and it is not limited to soccer. read more

FC Barcelona is arguably Spain's most beloved fútbol team, and their home stadium of Camp Nou is where you can get a tour of where the action happens. The tour begins with display cases showcasing trophies and memorabilia. Then it's on to the tour of the stadium. You'll see the stadium from the field level, middle of the bleachers, and from the press box where the announcers and media sit. There are some decent photo spots on each level if you walk around. You'll also see the away team's locker room, press conference room, and more. The tour ends in a pretty big gift shop. Admission was covered by our Barcelona Pass, and we visited this place along the hop-on, hop-off bus (Bus Turístic) route. We paid a few euros to rent an audio guide here. If you like looking at displays and learning about sports history, the audio guide is good to have, as there's a lot of content at the beginning. During the tour of the stadium, the guide wasn't essential, though there were a few places where it gave some helpful context to what we were looking at. There's free WiFi, so you can also look up stuff on your own. The WiFi was extremely reliable, with the signal extending even to the street outside the stadium. Probably the best WiFi we got in Barcelona! read more

The tour was a memorable experience, where learned so much history. We spent two hours, taking in all of the years and years of Barca trophies, pictures, memorabilia, fun facts; it was an overwhelming deep dive into the Men's and Women's teams, including the additional Basketball team. Admission was 26.5€ for adults online (save 3.50€) pre-purchased tickets with a set entrance time. We opted for the audio guide available for an additional 6€. (this was worth it! It includes a fun game to ensure we were paying attention to things). I am not even a Futbol Club Barcelona fan, but I was a fan of the immense time they out into showing off Camp Nou, the team, and the memories. It was great to not only see the museum, but be able to view so many different settings within the Stadium, including different level seating, the field, the guest bench, the locker rooms, press boxes, and VIP seating. We hung out to play the Robo Keeper. I got a goal, but I was disappointed to learn the prize is you get to just shoot again..it took a lot of goals to actually win anything-how lame. read more

I hate to rate this so low, but the experience was a bit underwhelming. I'm a great fan of Messi and this club but the stadium seemed to be in a state of disrepair and the staff we just there. Not very interested in helping and attempting to get you to spend more money on extras. The audio is severely out of order and poorly marked. I gave up on it after about 10 minutes. Don't get me wrong I am happy I visited and am looking forward to going back to see a match, but for a fan experience, I expected so much more. read more

I am a HUGE FC Barcelona fan and have been for quite some time, so go figure that I made this stop one of my first priorities while visiting Barcelona. Sadly the club was out of town when I was visiting or else I would of been rocking out at the stadium during a live game (Lifelong dream). The tours and free viewing of the external grounds go on though when the club is not around, so I took full advantage of that opportunity. The grounds themselves are not too large, so you can easily explore it within an hour, but their number one selling point is the god awful expensive tour. I had heard from various others and reviews online that the 25 euro ticket was not worth while. So even as big of a fan that I am, I had passed it up and somehow do not regret it (Weird...I know). When I was there, the tourist crowd was quite minimal, but I can only imagine the crowds during peak tourist seasons as I am sure you can barely move around. As for getting to the stadium, it is pretty simple as their is a metro stop just up the road, about a five or so minute walk to the stadium. Obviously taxis and buses can get you there as well, but will cost a tad more of may be more of a pain. So if you are a fan, yes it is a must stop, but honestly if you are not much a FC Barca fan, it may be a tad boring for you. read more

One of the coolest places to go see a soccer game. I went to a friendly and even that was fun as a tourist. I really recommend going to a game or even visiting the shops nearby. If your ever in Barcelon, go on the train or take a taxi and enjoy a nice game with the family! read more

I don't even watch soccer as much as other sports, but I was traveling Spain alone at the time and I am a fan of Messi so I thought it would be something cool to see while I am in Barca. Speechless doesn't even begin to explain my time! I purchased my tickets online last minute and came here on a tour alone. With minimal Spanish speaking ability. And ended up having a complete blast! I can only imagine how it must feel during a real match; this club has a long history of success and accolades. During the tour, I got to see a lot of the trophies and accomplishments of the team as well as being able to get out on the pitch. After visiting Camp Nou I ended up going to so many more soccer stadiums in Europe just to see how they compare. This one was definitely my favorite! Especially for those of you like me that like to sometimes travel alone and see what the world has to offer, things like this really show what the culture of the city is about. Must visit! read more

Forca Barca! We were in town for a few days and coincidentally Barcelona was hosting Real Madrid for El Classico! If you're in town and have the opportunity to watch a game there just do it. The stadium is huge and the atmosphere is amazing. There are several official stores including the mega store where you can by fc barcelona merchandise and there is an in store service for tax free if you're visiting from outside the EU. Regarding tickets, we tried to book online our cc was charged but no confirmation email. Looks like this is a common issue (maybe for big games like that one) at the ticket line at the stadium they looked up our tickets with email and cc number and helped us write a dispute the extra transaction that was charged. If you go to the stadium a few hours early you can by tickets in place as well, we thought that it would be sold out but there were some tickets till when the game started. Of course the earliest you book the better the options. I believe they started selling tix 15 days prior to the game. read more

I wasn't able to make it to a Barcelona FC game due to scheduling of the World Cup qualifiers so did the tour. For 27,50€ you get to go through the museum where they showcase all of the trophies from past to present. Get to go into the locker room and press conference room. The.best part was being on the sideline area of the field and being able to sit in the stands. Being up and close makes you see how massive the stadium really is. The official store is huge but has a really weird smell. Like Disneyland, they try to sell everything! They were selling pieces of the grass from last season and not for cheap! All in all, it was a cool experience. read more

This was a bucket list thng my wife and I wanted to do. What a legendary and beautiful stadium. So many great games have happened here and it lived up to the hype. The stadium is massive and fits 100k people which makes it a really energetic atmosphere. Fyi, they dont serve beer in the stadium. They only have alcohol free beer. Tickets were reasonable as well. We sat very close to the field for about 100 euros. We came to see a game against Valencia which was a fun back and forth game. I would highly suggest coming here if you are in Barcelona. Even if you aren't a soccer fan I would come to a game. It is ridiculously fun! Check it out. read more

Fortunate to be able to watch FCB vs Real Sociedad during my vacation. The stadium is easily accessible by metro. However leaving was a bit of a hassle with so many people. Street vendors selling merch - scarves $12-18. Inside Nike store had scarves (better quality) for $21. Your call. Skip the museum. Not worth $35.

Do you love FC Barcelona? Cool. You will love the Camp Nou experience full of history, exhibitions, and stadium settings dedicated to FCB. Otherwise, it is so-so. The Barça Stadium Tour & Museum (aka Camp Nou Experience Tour & Museu) is a self-guided tour of the team trophy room, legendary stadium, and huge FC Barcelona gift shop. You also walk through the press room, player locker room, parts of the stadium, and the edge of the pitch at ground level. Admission is 29.5€ for adults with discounts for teens (6-13), seniors (over 70), or online (save 3.50€) pre-purchased tickets with a set entrance time. An audio guide is available for an additional 6€. Guided tours and grander experiences are available at higher prices so check the website if you are interested in a deeper FC Barcelona experience. The tour took about 90 minutes with lots of walking so plan accordingly. The trophy room and being "close" to the pitch were the highlights for my wife and I; however, I'm sure we'd love the museum and artifacts even more if we loved FCB. If you are a soccer (football) fan then you will be a fan of Camp Nou and if you love Futbol Club Barcelona then you will love Camp Nou. read more

When visiting, try to catch a live Barca game. You won't regret. The price is much cheaper than a NBA game, not to mention NFL. Really worth it. If you have a large group, don't try to buy online.

So wear layers and jacket in winter. read more

One of the biggest stadiums for one of Europes biggest football teams, FC Barcelona! When I say big I mean BIG, to the tune of 100,000 fans capacity, filled for every game no matter how small or big the match. The views are spectacular from the upper bowl, I can almost imagine how good they must be from the lower more expensive areas. There were several major drawbacks to this stadium which kinda ruined the experience for me: 1. We purchased two tickets for the game, already at high prices of 150 Euros a piece. We had our infant baby with us who was hooked up to a chest carrier where we planned to keep her for the game (in our laps) when we arrived at the stadium we were informed that we would have to pay the full price of one ticket for her as well - just to sit on our lap. SO STUPID. I don't say this often but than goodness for scalpers. One saw us having problems and sold us a infant/child ticket for 30 euros - these passes are typically provided to seasons pass holders. PRO TIP for any tickets purchased from scalpers, make sure they walk with you to the gate and do not pay them until security scans and authorizes that the ticket is in fact valid. 2. Stairs.... all stairs. To get to the top bowl it's nothing but stairs for days. We asked if we could use the elevator because of the baby and were told no. SO we climbed and climbed.... and climbed. 3. Beer... no beer. Apparently many stadiums throughout Europe are no longer selling alcohol of any kind within the stadium any longer. Like at all. We had to make do with non-alcoholic Estrella which they couldn't pour a proper pint of and we ended up getting cups that were 60% foam. 4. Display screens. You accept the fact that when sitting in the nose-bleeds that your view of the live game won't be good, and we accept that. But you kinda hope that the scoreboard screen is big enough to make up for it. Instead Camp Nou has a screen on each end of the field that would be the visual equivalent of watching a movie on your living room TV on a 20" screen - you can see but not well. Still, you cannot compete with the atmosphere, grandeur and love of sport which exists within this building and all the early bumps out of the way, if you're a fan of sports period, you need to come to Camp Nou for a game if and when you're in Barcelona read more

Actually, I don't like soccer so much. I'm not keen on watching it, but I can't play it. The super famous club team "Barcelona" that even such a person knows. I think I didn't watch the team Messi is in. I knew from the time I stayed that the base of this team was within walking distance from the hotel. So, I woke up in the morning and took a walk and looked at the appearance alone. I was excited. If there is next time, I would like to go to the base game. read more

Wow...this place was really impressive I have to say! Its huge...everything about it is pretty amazing! I was so happy to have seen a game here at Camp Nou...what an awesome experience! My friend and I were visiting and heard FC Barcelona was playing the week we were there, so we decided to get tickets! They were playing Tottenham Hotspurs, and we got tickets for a little over 100 euros apiece, however to see a game here it was worth it! We were lucky enough to get good seats, we could see everything reasonably close and it was a great game! Both the goals scored in the game were literally right in front of us, it was so cool! Such a great atmosphere and some awesome fans made the game so much fun! This was actually my first time at a football game (EVER), so for my first game to be here was pretty epic. I might just turn into a football fan thanks to Camp Nou and FC Barcelona! If you are in Barcelona, go see a game here, it was an awesome experience and the stadium is massive, its a really cool sight to see. Make sure to stop (literally anywhere) and get some FC Barcelona garb, namely a scarf, and represent! What made it really amazing were the fans, listening to them, watching their flags, and feeling their energy!! So much fun!! The players put on a great show also which made for an all around 5 star experience! read more

REVIEW #3300! Camp Nou is the Stadium home of FC Barcelona or Barça. Founded in 1899 by a group of Swiss, English and Catalan footballers, the club has become a symbol of Catalan culture, hence the motto "Més que un club" (More than a club). The official Barça anthem is the "Cant del Barça". Unlike many other football clubs, the supporters own and operate FC Barcelona. It is the world's second richest football club in terms of revenue. They also own a professional basketball team (who beat the Lakers last year) and operate an ice rink. The club holds a long-standing rivalry with Real Madrid, and matches between the two teams are referred to as "El Clásico". On our last full day in Barcelona, Gayle and I got to pick a marque tourist attraction that we would spend some quality time. Her choice was Basílica de la Sagrada Família and mine was Camp Nou. In hindsight, she made the better choice (as Gaudi's Church is AMAZING), but I'm not complaining at all about the Camp Nou Experience. I'll also be the first to admit that I don't always "get" soccer and maybe in the same way that my British Friends don't understand Baseball. For them, I'll point to Game 6 of the recently completed 2011 World Series, and for me it's the 2011 Women's Soccer Semi-Final between Brazil and the USA. Back in the present, I was in Barcelona, so why not see for myself what all this World Champion excitement was all about? I also happened to catch the Barça/Seville Match on the Television the night before and definitely felt the love. Gayle (bless her heart) was very patient with me on this one and at 22 Euros each, such soccer greatness wasn't cheap. However, me and hundreds of others saw it all, including: - Posing for pictures in front of Trophies. - Standing amazed at a large room with nothing but trophies. - Experiencing Game Highlights in their Interactive Media Center. - Visiting the Locker and Press Rooms. - Seeing the Pitch up close at Field Level. - Feeling Humbled and Impressed By the Player's Chapel. - Sitting in the Seats at Various Stadium Levels. - Running Through the Tunnel to the "Cheers" of the Fans And when the Tour was over, you emerged right into the Team Store. The only thing I was missing at that point were 99 Euros for a Messi jersey and a boxed DVD set of Footballers' Wives. read more

Quite exhilarating to be able to actually attend a game at Camp Nou while in Barcelona and to actually have Barcelona win...it is unlike any other stadium feel I've ever experienced. Soccer in Barcelona is like cream cheese frosting on a carrot cake...it just goes- so it was almost imperative to try and get tickets to a game while vacationing in the city and it's definitely worth it if you're in town during the season. Every seat is a good seat and the feeling you get is quite worth it. On my second visit to Barcelona, we opted for the Camp Nou tour- I got a pic of the empty stadium with the popular "Mes que un club" and the infamous shot everyone does at most stadiums among some other selfies I won't bore you with. The tour was interesting but very crowded which kind of discouraged my enthusiasm. If you're a huuuuge soccer fan you'd appreciate this regardless and take note of every nook and cranny there. Lots of cool memorabilia and lots of history lessons. Lesson learned for me: If I'm fighting a crowd, I'd rather it be on a game day and not just a stadium tour, but in either case, try and make it a stop. read more

FORCA BARCA! As the largest futbol stadium in Europe, it is impressive! It holds 100,000 lucky fans that get to watch Barca play. The Camp Nou Experience is where you get to learn all the history behind FCB. There is trophy room, a history/fact area, and a few green screen photo opportunities. You are also able to view the locker room, showers and press room. Then of course, you can sit in the stands, view the field from the Presidential and walk on the field (well, at least the sidelines). It's a steep price to experience all this, but well worth it.

Vizca Barça!!! Més que un club! No one can deny that Barca is unstoppable right now! If you are a Barca fan, you have to visit the legendary Camp Nou at least once. The stadium is old but it's massive! It's bigger than San Siro! Although it's pricey (19 euros), I highly recommend the Barca Museum tour! You will learn about the history of the club and you'll have the chance to see all the memorabilias and trophies of Barça, the locker room, shower room, the press conference room, the pitch, etc. My highlights: 1)I got to see all three trophies of the Tripleta - La Liga, La Copa (del Rey), and La Champions too. 2) Signed jersey of Messi 3) Signed jersey of Maradona 4) Signed jersey of Cruyff 5) Signed jersey of Stoikovic 6) Joan Miro's original artwork dedicated to Barca 7) The locker room. I touched Messi's locker!! 8) The Pitch. WOW. It was such an overwhelming experience just to be able to stand on the pitch where my favorite players like Messi, Xavi, Villa, Puyol, and Iniesta play! 9) The chapel. Yeah that's right, there's even a little chapel inside the stadium for the players to pray before the game, which I found quite hysterical. People say that football is a religion in Europe and they are darn right. They really take football more seriously than Catholicism for sure! Prepare to spend about 3 hrs. This is not for everybody, only for the dedicated fans. Don't skip Sagrada Familia for Camp Nou tour! P.S.- To all the Barça fans: if you've never seen Crackovia on TV3 (Catalan station), you need to see it on youtube!!! Soooooo hysterical!!! read more

Book tickets online and expect crowds! As a neutral fan with no La Liga allegiances, FCB clearly invested a lot to make the fan experience special: you can spend anywhere from 1 to 3+ hours here depending on how much time you want to spend in each part of the museum. Your tour goes from looking at FCB's history (and trophy/memento room) to understanding FCB's impact on Catalonia / the community, then visits to the pitch and several tiers of seating within Camp Nou for pictures. I especially loved the amount of time and space they devoted to FCB's values and philosophies, how it all starts from the Masia academy, why they choose to play a certain way, and how the club pays homage to key players and coaches who have helped the club achieve its status as an elite global club. I recommend ONLY spending 26 euros on tickets for basic admittance, as you can choose to pay for any of the add ons during the tour itself. If you have 2+ hours to spend here, I'd also recommend getting the 6-euro audio guide so that you can avoid needing to squeeze between people to read the fine print about certain exhibits, items, or trophies. My only critique is the tour tries to nickel and dime you on everything. Beware specifically the things they try to sell you DURING the tour itself (like cubes of grass or used parts of the goal-nets), ask for the prices before you decide to buy! Also, any official photo they take for you costs ~45 euros (wow). The tour also ends in a 3-floor Nike megastore, so good luck avoiding temptations to spend money there :) read more

Watching a soccer game at Camp Nou is a surreal experience and a must do if you are in Barcelona. The seats are elevated so you have a great view of the field wherever you are sitting.

Camp Nou - Stadiums & Arenas Near Me - Barcelona, B

A terrific opportunity to see the stadium from the inside-out. The trophy cases and historical artifacts are almost overwhelming in their scope and breadth. That said, we went during the "off season" for tourism in Barcelona - at the end of October - and the place was PACKED. It was hard to read the signage, as IF you could get up to stand in front of it, you were constantly being jostled. I can't imagine what it must be like when the tourists are in town. ...and yes, there are audioguides available... but I found it hard to focus on the words while trying to maneuver around the "selfie squads." Eventually you exit through - you guessed it - the gift shop, so go with some deep pockets! read more

While in Barcelona, one of the things I wanted to do was check out a game so I was lucky enough to manage to get tickets for Barcelona's Champions League match with Juventus, which ended a 0-0 draw. As a lover of football and travel, I feel this review is the perfect place to mark my 1400th review and the timing on the eve of the Champions League final between Juventus who Barcelona was playing on that day when I visited and Barcelona's biggest rivals Real Madrid is also intriguing. Sadly it pains me to do this but this stadium was awful for a match viewing experience, my tickets were expensive enough at 115 euros each, albeit it being a Champions League game it still cost multiple times more than it would do at any other stadium, but what annoyed me the most was my view. Wheelchairs are situated right at the back of the stadium, basically in the concourse behind hundreds and thousands of fans, with a capacity of nearly 100,000 this is a rather large stadium and the largest I've been too, even beating Wembley but one thing which this stadium lacks is that modern feel. It just seemed dirty and old fashioned especially inside, where people were even smoking and sneeking in alcohol, which is normally not permitted in UEFA fixtures and is barred from being sold on the premises, and I can only presume the beer being sold here was non-alcoholic. In regards to the view, especially with the only place for wheelchairs being right at the back in Level One, it is hard to see the full pitch so the overall view is disgusting and ruined my match experience, there were no lifts due to the stadium being old but still that is frankly unacceptable and I've even had better views at Huddersfield Town and Hull City, the premier being in the Championship (England's second highest division) at the time of my visit, and the latter being a Premier League club but of course now Huddersfield are a Premier League Club after defeating Reading 4-3 on penalties and Hull are a Championship club after their relegation, despite impressive home performances under manager Marco Silva. Going back to my original review after the distraction, the staff were also rude and basically told me to "like it or lump it", they had installed small TV screens right at the back which firstly is unacceptable because you shouldn't pay to go to a match and have to watch it on tv, and secondly they weren't allowed to show the match on there anyway. I have wanted to visit this stadium for years so for me the experience was sad and a massive disappointment, arguably one of the biggest clubs in the world should be leading the way and not trailing behind the likes of Huddersfield Town and Hull City, so sadly for now even one star would be a huge generosity considering the rude stewards and awful match day experience I was put through. read more

Camp Nou is a staple of Barcelona. Getting the opportunity to watch Messi kick around a soccer ball is like seeing the light and getting another chance at life. It's truly magical. My friends and I decided to buy tickets to a game last minute and found seats for around 35 euros or about 45 U.S. dollars which is unheard of in the states. AND our seats weren't far from the field! We rushed to buy some FC apparel and made our way to the stadium to join the masses. Even with thousands of people in the arena, I could recognize the tight-knit community that Camp Nou fosters. The spirit and enthusiasm inside the arena was unlike anything I've ever experienced. You can just imagine how incredible it was when a goal was scored. My friends and I were close enough that we could read the names off of the players backs. It was exhilarating. Camp Nou was yet another highlight of my Barcelona experience. read more

Did not have the opportunity to come for a game, but did have a chance to walk around and explore an empty Camp Nou. I took the tour of the stadium and got to experience the more tranquil side without the massive crowds rooting for their teams. While it would have been awesome to come for an actual game, I am was glad I got to see the behind the scenes portion first! The key is to get here right at opening time. We arrived promptly at 9am and there was actually a massive line already because some local soccer teams were intending to tour that day as well. The tickets for 2 adults were 20 euros each and it included a behind the scenes look at one of the worlds more popular futbol stadiums. The trophy room was probably one of the coolest ones I have seen. They had so much history in that small area and it was fun to see all of the trophies, as well as the many jerseys the teams have had over the years. We also got to walk out on the field by where the players and coaches sit during the games. It was really a cool experience seeing how massive this place is and having it be empty made for some pretty epic pictures. If you are in Barca, I highly recommend coming here! It's not one of the " must do" items on my Barca list, but if you have some extra time and cash it's totally worth the journey. Particularly for those that are huge soccer fans! I can't wait to come back for an actual game! Also, be sure to roam around the Nike store at the end of the tour! They have some really unique items that you just don't find at other Nike shops. A bit pricey, but if you are a fan it's worth the stop! read more
