Antonio Gaudi's unique architecture was literally what put Spain on my bucket list so naturally…read moreseeing as much as we could of it was a huge priority. We did a Spain Portugal tour from Go Ahead and added couple days on both ends. Plus did the add of Guardi excursion that took us to more of his works. The guides told us alot of historical details and gave us a bit of time to look about but I would have rather had less history and more time to take it all it. so much detail. guide said this was the largest outdoor bench and it's very crowded so if you are waiting for no people in your pictures it's not going to happen. I suggest trying ai to delete the people if they are an issue for you. ChatGPT gives you some free but have to take 1 person at a time which would be unfortunate with this crowd so upgrade at least temporarily to the plus for I think 20 a month. My samsung phone provides free ai but like the other program it's pretty much 1 person at a time. Barcelona was a crowded city so if your like me and sometimes really want no strangers in your pictures try ai ... it doesn't always work immediately but usually does a great job. welcome to the new way to edit your pics. I didn't bring my real camera on this trip ... just my samsung phone which has pretty decent camera. The worlds a big place with alot I'd like to see but glad we made it here it's been on the bucket list for for over 30 yrs. I def heard the load parakeets here but wasn't the best place to see them as they were up in trees.

This is a lovely park and in my opinion, a must experience in Barcelona…read more We took our two kids and they had a great time. I wish I would've bought my tickets a little earlier so that we could've gone in the morning but I'm happy we got in anyway we took our baby in her front pack, which worked pretty well but at the same time I missed my stroller, but I feel like if I would've had the stroller there would've been a lot of carrying the stroller up and down things so I'm not really sure what you do there to win. Food options were very limited inside the park, which surprised me there were some vending machines and that was kind of it so we were pretty hungry. I would pack a picnic and do it that way where I had to do it again and I would also pack the picnic before getting off at either of the two close train stations where we got off there was like nothing towards getting food and then we went on the other way when we left, and that was all just really touristy, not great looking options

Add this to your Barcelona must see list. It was right beside the zoo and very close to the Arc of…read moreTriumph Arch. We actually happened upon it on accident as we were walking around and then we came back our last day. Beautiful Park lots of things to see. The fountain is amazing just gorgeous huge fountain lots of birds there. Great place for pictures right beside the fountain or up the stairs to the fountain. Lots of musicians and street performers around the park. I really am a bird fanatic so I was thrilled to see so many wild parakeets in the park. There are people feeding the parakeets bird seeds and you put some in your hand and they'll land in your hand and eat there. I loved it. There are some homeless people and one of them kind of threw a insane fit while we were there but no one was hurt he kicked over a barrier and was yelling at people. But that can happen anywhere just use caution anywhere you go. There is neat statues and there's also a little lake or pond where they had people renting rowboats we didn't do that but that looked like fun.

It seems to be popular among locals with a lot of families playing on the park and older people hanging on the benches. The highlight of the park for me were the parakeets! So many pigeons but if you sift through those, I saw a whole flock of parakeets in the trees. They were adorable and building their nest. Each time a bird would bring back some new materials for construction, they would all squawk it up in what I'd like to think was happiness, lol! My friend and I hung out here for almost an hour on the bench. We people watched, brought over our takeout pizza from Sartoria Panatieri Gràcia and had a lovely time.

This is a cute little neighborhood park that I like to visit when I'm craving some green space…read more Here's some of what you will find at this park: a lily pond with water lilies and fish a playground for kids dogs running around and playing - mostly off-leash (and I have yet to see a fight) lots of benches - some in the shade, some in the sunlight grassy sunny areas for picnics a cafe in the middle with waiter service and a decent sized menu (though I usually get just a coffee or a coke or maybe a beer... the patatas bravas where kinda "meh"). the signage is in Catalan, so all the little "points-of-interest" are still mysteries to me... but it's still nice. I'd sometimes bring a book here to read and get fresh air... It's also my little ploy to get my mother to join me - to get her exercising and changing the scenery for her a bit. I think it's working.

If not then there is no space to throw a ball as most pipicans are too small and not suitable for most dogs.

Parc de Montjuic is a public park that overlooks the city of Barcelona and the Mediterranean Sea…read more It was an example of town planning and architecture for the 1929 International Exhibition. Today it contains museums, the Olympic Ring from the 1992 Olympic Games, a castle, gardens, a fountain, cable car, and more. A tour guide drove my husband and me to this park. We enjoyed the panoramic views of the city buildings and the sea. Our tour guide explained that a Jewish cemetery was built into the hill.

There's a big highway along much of the route. Below ground level, but not covered as in town. You're heading towards the end of the L3 line. The park is worth the trip. Fabulous gardens, the maze, and 200+ year old buildings. Some statuary shows its age, but that adds to the charm. If you're over 65, admission is free.
