I just came home from the most amazing trip to spain and can’t wait to share it all with you. I went to Barcelona, San Sebastian and Madrid. Below are all my Barcelona faves! I will post about all three!

Palau de la Música

Start with Palau de la Música Catalana, this is about a 10-minute walk through the popular neighborhood called El Born. A district inside the historic center of Barcelona, with small streets, art galleries and boutique shops. https://www.instagram.com/p/BxUfFzcHVH-/

Parc Guell

Next stop - Parc Guell who maybe be called the most creative park in the world. Get there as early as possible to avoid the crowds. You can buy tickets in advance via their website ($8.5 per ticket). It is recommended to do this since they only allow a certain amount of people per time block. But you don’t need to enter the park. It is possible to take photos of Gaudi’s work without buying a ticket.

Sagrada Familia

The Sagrada Familia. It is under construction since 1882 and they say it’s almost done. The cathedral is was one of Gaudi’s latest projects and worked on this until his death. Tickets for the church will cost about $16 but you can also admire it from the outside. Stroll through the little park in front of the Sagrada for the perfect photo spot or just a little cover from the sun. https://www.instagram.com/p/BxNkfBhnSuG/

Barcelona Cathedral

The Barcelona Cathedral is one of the most famous Gothic cathedrals in Europe, and the seat of the Archbishop of Barcelona. With an imposing artwork like Sagrada Familia just around the corner the Barcelona Cathedral often goes unnoticed, but make sure to pay it a visit if you want to visit a beautiful Gothic cathedral and snap some excellent Instagram shots. https://www.instagram.com/p/BxRilLeHD7Y/

Bunkers del Carmel

Bunkers del Carmel is one of my favorite locations in Barcelona. Bunkers del Carmel is a park a short metro journey out of the centre of Barcelona, once you reach the metro station (El Carmel or Alfons X, depending on where you’re coming from) you can either bus it up the hill or walk if you’re feeling sporty. Once you get to the top there are epic 360 degrees views over Barcelona, and you will find a lot of the locals having picnics enjoying the nice weather and view. https://www.instagram.com/p/BxIQ5mKnI2n/

La Boqueria Barcelona Food Market

La Boqueria Barcelona Food Market is one of the top foodie stops in the city. Plan your visit to one of Europe’s largest and most famous food markets.
