    Small replica of La Sagrada Familia
    Matthew T.

    Who knew such a small house could be such a big disappointment? Unless you're a massive Gaudi fan I can't see why you'd visit his house. It is tiny and there are but a few exhibits if you can even call them that. Some furniture, some small displays and that's about it. The interior has none of the eccentric hallmarks of Gaudi's work and altogether was not a good use of time and money. Perhaps the most comical aspect of it all is that you have to pay an admission fee to enter. Your 5,50 euros are better spent tossed away to one of the several selling selfie sticks in the park. Also it should be noted that the Casa Museu Gaudi is technically not within Park Guell. Oh no, to enter Park Guell you need to purchase a separate ticket. Although Spain has many cultural gems, they will make sure you pay up for every little thing they can unjustifiably divvy up.

    Just stunning... the views as well as Gaudi's architecture! If you are a fan of Gaudi, this place is a must see. Palau Guell is also located here - Gaudi's design of Guell's home. Wear comfortable shoes if you like to explore - there are lots of stairs and trails involved for walking/exploring around the park. Also, take note of the fountains throughout the park which allows you to wash your feet - no stinky feet allowed in Europe. JK Best way to get here is by bus - they drop you off right by the entrance/gate. Trains will drop you off a certain spot and you'll have to walk a few kilometers uphill. Tip: Purchase your admission tickets prior to visiting and get there right when it opens for better photo ops. Less crowd and you get the museum to yourself. Tip for runners: Bring your shoes and gear... running along the park will leave you in awe. Try to do it before the sun rises or run when the sun is about to set (but that may be difficult coz the sun sets pretty late in Barcelona).

    Great if you like Gaudi (we didnt but still enjoyed it). The buildings were really innovative, bright and creative. However the museum didnt really show much about the architects life and how he had developed his skills. Really touristy, but its a must see if youre in Barca.

    To anyone who loves art... a schedule to have in a Barcelona itinerary. Ensure to book your reservation ahead of time or else you could be denied access for the day. Important note to remember: 7:30am grants you FREE admission, as well as at 8pm. Any other time, a fee is collected and can be booked online.

    Gaudi's home, when compared to many of his other masterpieces, is certainly in the shadow of his other creations, especially the adjacent Park Guell. There is some interesting furniture and information on the man who so influenced the look of Barcelona. It is a good detour, and not too pricey at 6 euros, if you find yourself in the area, but it is not nearly as impressive as you would expect considering it housed an architect with such a creative mind.

    Whether or not you're a fan of Cubism, everyone knows Picasso--and the Picasso Museum in Barcelona…read moreis an absolute must to understand the origins of this brilliant mind. There a handful of Picasso Museums around the world, but the one in Barcelona is worth a visit as this was not only the first museum dedicated to Picasso's work, but also the only one created while he was alive. The museum is sectioned off by eras of Picasso's life, starting with his early formal training under his father, Jose Ruiz, at age 7 and his earlier works when his family were his muses. I always knew Picasso was talented, but I had no idea just how truly multifaceted he was. Entry is by timed ticket, and can be reserved for free 4 days before your actual visit between certain hours. NOTE: If you need to use the bathroom, hold on to your ticket--you'll need to scan it for re-entry.

    How can you not give a lovely museum 5 stars? The building itself is really cool -- a series of…read moreconnected medieval palaces with beautiful courtyards and stone details -- and the exhibits are genuinely interesting. You get to see Picasso's early works and sketches, which give great insight into his evolution as an artist, plus some of his famous Blue Period pieces and later reinterpretations of Velázquez's Las Meninas. I'll admit, I'm more the type who'd rather wander the streets of Barcelona than hang out in a museum, so I'm probably not the best art critic. But still -- it's Picasso! Totally worth a visit. And the best part? Afterward, I grabbed an amazing lunch of tapas and beers just around the corner. Perfect way to cap off the visit. 5 stars all around, lol.

    This was Gaudi's first major commission, and it is mind boggling in the details. We were not able…read moreto get tickets at other Gaudi locations, but I feel like this was a good choice--not crowded, manageable size, and contextual information about Gaudi's contemporaries. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site. There is a self tour--honestly the voice recording was a little grating, so we had one person in the group read from the text from theirs. The information is a must because there are otherwise very few placards identifying the rooms or highlighting details. The gift shop had lots of tempting stuff, much of it made in Barcelona.

    Just so you know, I hate the word "Oriental" especially if someone calls me one. I ain't a rug, OK?…read moreHowever, it's acceptable to call the architectural style Antoni Gaudi used in the design of his first house as Oriental. The building has a Persian/Moroccan flavor with the constant use of decorative tiles, illustrated ceilings, and Moorish arches. It's not my favorite Gaudi building, not by a long shot, but it's a good starter course if you have time. It's up in the quieter Gracia neighborhood away from the crowds at the other Gaudi landmarks, but it's worth the trek. The grounds are unique in integrating the interior and exterior elements into a seamless picture of nature. There's a heavy dose of exotic Asian flair (...hey, I didn't say Oriental) in the ridged framing, the shape of the eaves, and the rampant idiosyncratic decorative touches. The rooftop is relatively modest for Gaudi, but this is where he started after all.

I stopped in here based on a recommendation from a colleague. My whole family is made up of history teachers so I love getting to visit sites like this. The upper floors of the museum have some artifacts and do a nice job providing a high level overview of the history of Barcelona. It starts with Barcelona as a Roman Colony and goes through the modern era. The main attraction though is ruins underground. You can see artifacts from the Roman Era and Medieval Era. It was really neat. Mostly it is just foundations, but there are some tiled areas that take you back in time. The cost is modest, and your ticket is good for several days. It was a great way to spend ~1.5 hours learning about Barcelona.

You can't miss it. Walking by, if you weren't sure what building this was, you'd google it for sure. Taking the direct route from the traffic roundabout (and nearest metro station, as well as many bus stops) to the front entrance entails many stairs. Plan a good 10 minutes to walk up, that is if you don't stop for photos along the way. From the side streets, where I came from, there is the option of outdoor escalators (how novel! I haven't seen many outdoor ones before) for part of the trek upwards. Upon entering the ticket counter is to the left/center right inside the door, there is the option to purchase online though I bought them in person and it took only a few minutes with no line on a Friday in September. The ground floor lobby is right beyond the counters and provides direct access to the 6 main areas of the museum - Medieval Gothic art, Medieval Romanesque art, Renaissance and Baroque art, Modern art, Numismatics (coins and medals), and the main auditorium/atrium which also contains the cafe and a massive pipe organ. The exhibits were very thorough and for the most part chronological. I was impressed by their extensive Romanesque fresco collection and maintenance, and also enjoyed the modern art and Art Nouveau/Art Deco furniture collection. Walking around the total museum can easily take 2-3 hours, more if you want to read all the descriptions. The museum attendants are quite detailed in checking your tickets at the entry of each exhibition hall. Larger bags and backpacks must be carried in front of you not on your back. Bathrooms are available. Parking for cars and buses is also available though aside from tour groups it looked like majority of patrons walked there.
