小欣:“The Sagrada Familia is not comparable to Westminster in the UK. The exterior design is quite unique and the stained glass is just average. Westminster in the UK is the most beautiful church I have ever seen.”
玎毛头狼头:“For Gaudí's sake, it's worth a visit. Other than that, it's probably not cost-effective because the place is very small and there are a lot of people. You can walk through the museum in one turn. The things inside are very expensive. I can only say that since you are here, you have to go and see it, just like the Sagrada Familia.”
Anonymous user:“The black iron railing patterns and the top floor of the facade are the highlights. Compared with Casa Milà and Sagrada Familia, Casa Milà is a bit plain. It is best to visit Milà first among the three treasures of Gaudí, then Casa Milà, and Sagrada Familia. You will feel that the experience is getting more and more exciting and shocking.”
Opening hours: 08:30-22:30(Tickets available until 21:00; admission ends at 21:00)
206***58:“The design of the genius Gaudi is really eye-catching. It feels like being in the ocean world. The details are amazing. The visit is well arranged and interesting. The 3D effect of the visit pad is great. It is definitely worth a visit.”
118***48:“Looking at Picasso's works again, I suddenly understood. The primitive, bold and strong things deeply attracted me and stimulated my sensory nerves! Picasso used various painting methods to express his own emotions casually. Basically, it was not purely aesthetic, but rational and abstract. He reconstructed and combined objects to bring people newer and deeper feelings!”
陈虎妞妞:“It is worth going. The building itself is very distinctive and colorful. It looks different from the outside, and it is even more gorgeous inside. The performance is very exciting, the dance is very tense, full of Spanish-style unrestrained and passion, a wonderful enjoyment”
Opening hours: 10:00-20:00 (admission ends at 19:00)
g_soo23:“Gaudí’s Masterpiece – A Must-Visit in Barcelona!Park Güell is an absolute marvel of Gaudí’s brilliance! From the vibrant mosaics to the whimsical architecture, every corner of this park feels like a dream. The colorful designs, intricate details, and breathtaking views of Barcelona make it a truly unforgettable experience.Walking through the park feels like stepping into a fairytale, with its unique structures and artistic flair. A must see!”
芳眼看世界:“The charm of Barcelona's Gothic District is to turn medieval stones, Mediterranean sunshine and Catalan rebel stains into living historical museums visiting the Gothic District, suggesting to turn off navigation and follow the graffiti on the stone walls, which are said to be the incarnation of medieval escape wizards. And beneath the Gothic Quarter is a 2,000-year-old Roman fish sauce factory, salty smell mixed with modern Tapas garlic aromas - called historical preservatives”
Opening hours: 09:30-18:30 (admission ends at 18:00)
Anonymous user:“The first time I saw such a beautiful place was actually a hospital! When we went there, it was under renovation. There was a Chinese guide and it cost 5 euros per person.
We saw the wards used by the hospital at that time and the place where patients basked in the sun. There were also orange trees in the yard that were used for Chinese medicinal materials.”

Spanish Mediterranean Coast Tour ~ Barcelona (Region)
Mataró is a prosperous industrial, commercial and tourist town on the Maresme coast, inheriting a long and rich historical heritage that dates back to the Roman Piazza Lluro, as evidenced by the archaeological site of the Llauder Tower, which contains ruins. However, many other significant events also left their mark in this town, such as the construction in 1848 of the first railway in the history of the Iberian Peninsula, which connected Barcelona to Mataró. The old city center is bounded by 16th-century walls. In the center we can see the 15th century Cathedral of Santa Maria, whose facade had its medieval and neo-Romanesque additions in the 19th century.
Today, La Wrier and La Rambla are the city’s main commercial arteries. There we can see notable buildings such as the 17th century Town Hall, which includes architectural elements added later. At the intersection of these two streets, Plaza Santa Ana, we can visit the Baroque church of the same name. We can also visit other notable buildings such as the 18th century House of Caputxines and the Regional Museum of Maresme, housed in a Renaissance building.
Modernism has left a special mark in Mataró, thanks to the legacy of architect Josep Puig i Cadafalch, who was born in this city. He also owns one of the city’s symbols, the Colli Regàs House.
