Sights of Barcelona

Something you simply must see if you are visiting Barcelona for the first time.

First of all, a map with Barcelona attractions will surely recommend you:

Gothic Quarterwhere most of the medieval monuments are concentrated.

Cathedral is a stunning example of Gothic architecture diluted with the ringing charm of Catalonia (admission is 2 EUR, open until 7pm).

Another very important landmark in Barcelona, whose photos are truly mesmerizing, is the Sagrada Familia, one of the most famous creations of the brilliant architect Antoni Gaudi (ticket price 15 EUR, with audio guide 22 EUR).

Haudi's most interesting creation is the Mila House, which is both a residential building and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The house is interesting not only for its extravagant wavy facade, but also for its engineering solutions: no load-bearing walls and a natural ventilation system. The entrance fee is 20.5 EUR (10.25 EUR for children aged 7-12).
