10 Points of Interest & Landmarks in Sants-Montjuíc That You Shouldn't Miss
Barcelona feels a bit surreal – appropriate, since Salvador Dali spent time here and Spanish Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí designed several of the city’s buildings. Stepping into Gaudí’s Church of the Sacred Family is a bit like falling through the looking glass - a journey that you can continue with a visit to Park Güell. Sip sangria at a sidewalk café in Las Ramblas while watching flamboyant street performers, then create your own moveable feast by floating from tapas bar to tapas bar.

After enjoying some early evening Tapas, we went to the Font Magica, the show lasted around 1 hour, really great to watch, the lights and music worked really well with the fountain. Make sure to get there a bit early to find a good viewpoint.

Cemeteries are usually a part of the history of a city and they reflect the tastes and habits of a wide array of its social groups throughout time. Barcelona Cemeteries have been organizing the Cemetery Barcelona Route since 2004 as way to involve the citizen with the collective memory of the city.

So much history, peace, and beauty. If you like Highgate Cemetary, Pere Lachaise, Abney Park, or Montparnasse, you'll love this. Featuring the Fosser de la Pedrera, Miro's tomb, and loads of neo-gothic sculptures, this is a huge cemetary built on the side of a mountain with winding paths. Sepulchres the size of small chapels are dotted in and about the corridors of stacked graves. There are so many interesting features from the personal decorations and offerings loved ones have left to the huge family tombs in various styles. It's not at all touristy, which makes it a real pleasure to wander around. Read up on the internet and download a map before you go because it's pretty much self-guided. I got the 23 bus from Placa D'Espayna to get there and the 21 bus to get from here to the centre of Barcelona. Both were very quick journeys, but check the timetables so you don't waste half an hour waiting. I spent 2.5 hours in the cemetery, but you need more to see everything. Take water, a snack, and wear trainers. There is a decent WC, but only one!
