Route

1. The Güell Palace - or Palau Güell in Catalan - is one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Barcelona and recognises the astonishing works of Antoni Gaudi. This luxurious late 19th century home appears, as with many of Gaudi's works, slightly out of place in its surroundings but is yet another triumph of the man.

2. Plaça de Sant Jaume holds an important role in the past and present of Barcelona and Catalonia's government. Two grand buildings dominate the square ; Casa de la Ciutat (or City Hall) on the right and Palau de la Generalitat de Catalunya (more commonly known as the Presidential Palace) on the left.

3. The palace is located on the northern corner of the former city wall which enclosed the Gothic Quarter, in place for almost 1,500 years until it was torn down in 1858 to make way for the Ildefons Cerdà Plan.

   15 min

4. The official name of the building in Catalan is ‘Catedral de la Santa Creu I Santa Eulalia’, which translates to ‘Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Saint Eulalia’. This exquisitely crafted Neo-Gothic structure has been a spiritual location within Barcelona for approximately 1,500 years.

5. This mesmerising 1.2 kilometre stretch is a pleasure to meander both night and day. Connecting the hub of Barcelona's transportation and central districts: Plaça de Catalunya to Port Vell, it is now one of the busiest boulevards in the world visited by 80 million people annually almost 60% of whom are foreigners.

About Barcelona

Barcelona zet Gaudí's fantasiegebouwen en een Gotische wijk tussen stranden en groene heuvels, met eten en nachtleven die er zeker bij passen.

Het werk van Antoni Gaudí bepaalt het beeld van de stad. De Sagrada Família rijst op boven de Eixample, Casa Batlló en Casa Milà staan langs de elegante Passeig de Gràcia en de mozaïekterrassen van Park Güell kijken uit over de daken. De Gotische wijk heeft zijn kathedraal, smalle steegjes en verborgen pleintjes behouden, en El Born voegt het Picassomuseum en de hoge kerk Santa Maria del Mar toe.

Top-ranked sights in Barcelona: Sagrada Família, Montserrat Mountain, Gothic Quarter (Barri Gòtic).
