Romantic Restaurants, Getaway Places in Barcelona

"Behold the insouciant creative dynamism of Europe's most bizarre cathedral. Often called "the last cathedral" (even though it's not technically a cathedral), the Sagrada Familia inspires, delights, torments, and disturbs in equal measure. It is Barcelona's Holy Grail of religious buildings."

"Start your day by going to Sagrada Familia first thing in the morning as the lines get extremely long and the place gets incredibly crowded."

"One of Antoni Gaudí’s most famed works, and one of the most visited attractions in Barcelona, is the spectacular Park Güell. One of the city’s largest parks, it is a green space that is rich in biodiversity and offers panoramic views of the city at its feet. You can either take a stroll around for free in the natural areas or pay a fee to enter the ‘monumental zone’ where the core attractions of the park are."

"Park Guell receives more than ten million tourists every year. Within the park Antoni Gaudi built a residential complex, which became his masterpiece."

"Next, head to both, Casa Milà and Casa Batlló. They are a 6 minute walk away, and are both the perfect reflection of Gaudi’s eccentric architecture. Curvy walls, weird alleyways, polychromatic colors, hypnotic paintings and much more, you’ll be able to truly get a taste of Gaudi on a more intimate level than ParcGuell. It’s a legend of architecture, of creation, the true meaning of letting your creativity run wild."

"Casa Batlló is located along Passeig de Gràcia and this street is worth walking just for the row of houses that make it famous. This is a major thoroughfare of Barcelona and we stayed in the Majestic Hotel and Spa located on this street. There are several shops and restaurants, but it is Casa Batlló that is the star attraction."

"Do you want to make your trip to Barcelona unforgettable for your kids?. Take them for a dramatized theatrical tour at Casa Battlo. Either the family’s housekeeper or Lady Ramoneta herself will show your kids the crannies and nooks of the house while telling them some unforgettable anecdotes about the family."

"If you are still not dazzled by Gaudí’s legacy in Barcelona, la Pedrera (also known as Casa Milà) will definitely conquer you. The building has six floors full of sinuous curves, impossible architectural forms and a decoration that, as in the Sagrada Familia and most of Gaudí’s works, recreates the forms of nature. But if anything stands out in the Pedrera is its unusual roof with a great artistic and symbolic power, in which its chimneys in the form of sculptures of warriors form an impressive army of stone."

"This madcap Gaudí masterpiece was built in 1905–10 as a combined apartment and office block. Formally called Casa Milà, after the businessman who commissioned it, it is better known as La Pedrera (the Quarry) because of its uneven grey stone facade, which ripples around the corner of Carrer de Provença."

"The National Art Museum of Catalonia is one of the most important museums from Catalonia and of course Barcelona. Well-known from the local people for its abbreviated name, MNAC, it is our first option because here you will find an extensive collection of Catalan art from Romanesque and Gothic art, Renaissance and Barroc art and as well, Modern Art with works by Picasso, Ramon Casas, Dalí, Gaudí that will make you discover how important and rich Catalan culture is. In addition, one of the main reasons to select MNAC as our first option is due to the fact that this museum is located in Montjuic hill and its privileged position offers outstanding views over Barcelona."

"Sitting atop a hill, the Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya looks more like a massive castle than an art museum, a museum that holds a king’s ransom in treasures. It is here, however, that visitors will find the greatest Catalan art from the 10th century to the 20th century. Here visitors will find impressive Romanesque murals that graced church apses, and Gothic art from the era when Catalonia was expanding across the Mediterranean."

"20 km from city center 22 out of 29 places to visit in Barcelona. The National Museum of Art in Catalonia is located in the vast, Italian style Palau Nacional. One of the largest museums in Spain, the Museu Nacional is known for its extensive collection of Romanesque art, featuring works like Virgin of Ger and the Batlló Majesty."

"When we get hungry we’ll fill up at one of my favourite tapas spots Bormuth (31 Carrer Rec). I haven’t mentioned it before but you should be drinking vermouth on your itinerary. This a red or white aromatised wine is a massive part of Barcelona’s drinking culture. We get a couple here with the tapas and boom!"

"It’s in many guidebooks, and it was recommended to me by a few of the born-and-bred in Barcelona locals. I’ve been here at least 3 times in the past year, and I plan to return soon. The restaurant is situated in one of the most charming and trendy neighborhoods in Barcelona – El Born."

"Situated in the trendy El Born neighborhood, Bormuth is famous for its traditional tapas and homemade vermouth. Try the croquetas caseras or the berenjena rebozada y miel (breaded aubergine with honey) The interior interior is cozy and a large terrace overlooks the Mercat Del Born."

"173 rooftop restaurant Barcelona | Photo: https://crowneplazabarcelona.com/. Namned after its altitude above sea level, the 173 Rooftop Terrace is found on top of the excellent hotel InterContinental Barcelona in Montjuïc. From the charming, stylish and spacious terrace you get an amazing 360-degree view over Barcelona, and you can see everything from the Torre de Collserola and the Tibidabo to the Montjuïc cable car, the Sagrada Familia, Plaza España and the Palacio Nacional."

"Located underneath the whitewashed Church of Sitges, Platja de la Fragata is the first western beach of the town that extends up to Terramar Hotel. The beach is very popular among the youngsters because of the availability of volley ball nets and beach tennis. The locals and tourists who plan to visit this beach with their children can also hire pedalo."

Their handmade sushi is characterized by both spicy and sweet hints to give it a unique buzz on the tip of the tongue."

"In the Matsuri they have one of the best menus we’ve eat sushi of variety and excellent quality. The fresh and original flavors dominate all the dishes of Matsuri. We recommend Nigiri tuna with foie; our preferred dish."

The french chef of the restaurant is a master in combines the great flavours from France and Spain to create a menu that will take you back to L’angle d’Adriana every time. The service is amazing and most of the times you’ll be welcomed with a glass of wine and some appetizers."
