Barcelona is a popular destination for all sorts of travel, and it is obvious why. Barcelona is the best place for travelers seeking fun and culture, with a rich history and incredibly vibrant nightlife. Here are our top three favorite activities to do in Barcelona.

Picasso Museum 

Pablo Picasso is one of the world’s most famous and well-known artists. Picasso was a young artist who quickly made an impression; throughout his time, he created over 4,251 works. The Museum opened in 1963 and explored a deeper relationship between Picasso and his father, and his connection to Barcelona that shaped his adolescence and youth and stayed with him until he died. Picasso Museum is perfect for travelers who love art, history, and exploring.

La Sagrada Familia 

This monumental church began construction in 1882 and was outlined and drawn up by the famous architect Gaudi with help from Francisco de Paula de Villar—built only with donations from the public. The temple has been under construction ever since. Ever since day one, it has been a great church to visit. We suggest spending at least two to three hours here, and there is so much to see despite being unfinished. 

Gothic Quarter

Stroll through the iconic, old-European streets and alleys with the most picturesque neighborhood in the absolute heart of Barcelona. The Gothic Quarter blends historical artifacts from the Roman empire until the Spanish Civil War. The perfect place for those who love to discover quaint terraces and plazas brought to life with bars and local musicians that last all night long.
