Barcelona One - day Guide (Gaudí Art Main Line) Part 2​

#westerneurope
Itinerary Logic: Visit in sequence from north to south according to geographical location (Sagrada Família → Park Güell → around Passeig de Gràcia), reducing the time spent on backtracking; return to the old town in the evening and end with a concert at night!

Arrive at Sagrada Família at 9:00: Book at least 1 month in advance during peak season (official website or third - party platforms). Choose to enter at 9:00 to avoid crowds.
Recommendation for climbing to the top: The towers on the Nativity Facade (take the elevator up and walk down) to overlook the panoramic view of the city.
Time spent: 2 hours (including climbing to the top)

Park Güell at 13:30: Book the 13:30 session in advance (you can enter within 30 minutes before or after).
Transportation: Sagrada Família → Park Güell
Take a taxi: About 15 minutes, costing 12 - 15 Euros (Uber). Or walk for about 20 minutes after getting off the subway. It's a bit tiring, but the scenery along the way is quite nice.

Casa Batlló at 15:00
Highlights: Dragon - spine roof, deep - sea patio, blue tile atrium
Time spent: 1 - 1.5 hours

Casa Milà at 16:30: A 5 - minute walk from Casa Batlló (both are on Passeig de Gràcia)
Time spent: 1 hour | Closing time: Around 20:30 in summer and 18:30 in winter

Palau de la Música at 20:30:
I originally just wanted to visit, but found that there was a guitar performance that day, so I decided to book a ticket directly to watch the performance. I booked a ticket for the 20:30 performance in advance.
Seat selection guide: The front row on the second floor has the best view, where you can take in the painted glass dome and the stage.
Performance types: Flamenco guitar / classical music (check the program list on the official website).
Transportation: A 15 - minute walk from the Monument a Colom

Note: There are many thieves on La Rambla and in subway stations. Carry your backpack in front. We prepared in advance and luckily didn't encounter any.
