Top 10 Sights & Landmarks in El Congrés i els Indians, Catalonia

September 16, 2021 Milan Banda

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.

Ciutat Vella

This fascinating area is steeped in history, with city hall located in the same spot where kings once reigned. You'll find narrow streets and squares here, with Gothic mansions, museums, historic churches, bars and restaurants. The Placa del Rei is reputedly the place where King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella welcomed Columbus after his voyage to America.

MUHBA Temple d'August

Temple in Barcino, dating to the 1st century BC and rediscovered in the early-20th century.

Reviewed By JRD1Atlanta_GA - Atlanta, United States

This place is tucked away without much in the way of markings. It is incredible to think about how old these artifacts are. Of particular interest there is a stone block that has a Roman era inscription. Plus - it is free admission so the price is right.
