Barcelona, Spain’s Sagrada Familia cathedral is a marvelous, stunning piece of architecture and one of the must-visit spots in Catalonia’s largest city. Due to its popularity, however, a trip to this iconic place can be a little stressful if you aren’t sure what you’re doing. These three helpful bits of information will ensure that you make the most out of your visit.
Buy Tickets in Advance
While you can get into most tourist attractions simply by showing up and buying a ticket, that isn’t the case at the Sagrada Familia. Due to capacity limitations and its popularity, you must buy your ticket for a specific time before going or else you won’t be allowed in.
Patience
We’re not going to lie: it can be a little bit stressful and nerve-wracking to visit this place due to the lines for entry and the number of people you will see there. However, if you keep this in mind before going and are patient as you deal with hordes of people, you’ll enjoy your trip much more.
Don’t Rush Your Visit
Related to the previous point is the fact that you should not rush through your visit. Your ticket allows you to stay inside for as much time as you’d like, so be sure to take advantage of this opportunity to see all that this Gaudi masterpiece has to offer.
