A standard tour could start in the Eixample, enjoying a panoramic view of the modern part of the city, then reach La Sagrada Família. The famous church designed by Antoni Gaudí, which is still under construction, the symbol of the city. I can show you the best place to take amazing photos, and I will tell you everything you need to know about this unique monument.
We will continue to Passeig de Gràcia, the most luxurious and elegant avenue in Barcelona, famous for its astonishing buildings. Here, Gaudí built two other monuments: La Casa Batlló and La Pedrera. We can walk along this boulevard on foot or by car. This neighborhood is like an open‐air museum of architecture and the best place to discover Modernism, the Catalan Art Nouveau style.
Another unavoidable stop is the Montjuïc Park. From the top of the hill the views over the city are spectacular. There you can visit the Olympic Stadium, the Museu Nacional d’art de Catalunya located in the Palau Nacional and the fountains of Plaça Espanya. The itinerary continues bordering the oldest part of the city, by the Passeig de Colom in front of the sea, we will see the old harbor and the Port Olímpic, the Ciutadella Park, and the original Arc de Triomf, gate, and symbol of the Universal Exhibition of 1888.
The itinerary could end, for example, at Catalonia square, the nerve center of the city. From there you can continue on your own to stroll along Las Ramblas, visit the Boqueria Market, or go shopping. If you prefer, you can complete this tour with a walking tour of the Gothic Quarter.
