Other Gaudi Creations: Pabellons Guell
  • Tip Rating:
  • These are some very interesting buildings by Gaudi. You can see Mudejar influence in them. The main gate is the thing that stands out the most, an iron dragon. Watch out it doesn't bite you : )
    You can only admire this place from the outside, it's a private property.
    It's between the two metro stations Palau Reial and Maria Cristina (both in Av. Diagonal), right in Pius XII square. From Pius XII square take Av. Pedralbes, is the numer 7)

    Parks / Plazas: Enjoying parks
  • Tip Rating:
  • If you like parks this is one I think you'd like to visit. It's the ideal place to take a rest and even a picnic. If you have visited Palau Pedralbes or Pabellons Güell you can go to this place which isn't far from them.
    Go along Av Diagona until you are in Francesc Macià square. From there there is Av Pau Casals. Take this street, keep walking and in a cuople of minutes you get t this park, named by the way Turó Parc)
    Monet would had enjoyed this place and sure he'd had painted the water lilies in the ponds there.
