Barcelona Tour & Travel Guide - Places to See in Barcelona

La Rambla

Las Ramblas, as it is also known, is a thriving tourist hot-spot, with its leafy avenues, street performers, iconic statues and myriad collection of shops. A number of different streets make up La Rambla, each a pedestrian boulevard with unique character. A noisy bird market in one section, an 18th-century rococo mansion in the next. The Gran Teatre del Liceu, a famous 19th century opera house, is also located here.

Barri Gotic

The medieval centre of Barcelona is still preserved in this maze of narrow streets, historical squares and Gothic architecture. If it’s history you’re looking for, this is the place to be. Located in the heart of the city, the charming squares are lined with 14th century buildings, fountains and castles. Browse through the numerous cafes, make a stop at the iconic Catedral, and take in the magnificence of the Roman walls and the bell tower.

Park Guell

Something out if a fairytale, the renowned architect Gaudi worked on this project for 14 years - from 1900 to 1914. It is a fascinating experience with stretches of winding walkways, mosaic installations and sensational views of the city and ocean.

La Sagrada Familia

A magnificent structure and the life’s work of Antoni Gaudí. What was visualized as a great medieval cathedral with three main facades- representing Passion and Death on the west, Nativity on the east and Glory on the south - is still not complete after a 100 years of work. A must-see while in Barcelona.

Museu Picasso

Visit Barcelona’s most popular museum housing Picasso’s early works and impressionist creations. Situated on the Carrer de Montcada, three beautiful stone mansions showcase his ceramics and canvases from the 1890s. The second level shows work from Barcelona and Paris from 1900-1904. His later, more complex work from 1957 is also on display.

Montserrat

Atop a 4000 ft mountain, this is the spiritual centre of Catalonia. It is home to the 16th century Benedictine Monastery and the 12th century wooden sculpture of La Moreneta (Black Virgin). It is an attractive pilgrimage destination and can be reached by car, train or cable car.

Beaches

Nova Icaria: Situated close to the Olympic Marina, this beach is food lover’s paradise. Spend a day on the golden sands hopping the numerous beach bars and popular restaurants. Bogatell: To get away from the hustle-bustle and noise of the city, head to this long stretch of sand and sea. The stone walkway here is perfect if you want to jog or cycle along the beach. The raised promenade blocks out the city noise and there are no noisy bars here either.
