| Barcelona: Free Things to Do Beautiful architecture is always free, and in a city known for its resident masters, you can’t go far without stumbling across one of their works, and the city itself offers a wealth of places to wander. Las Ramblas The pedestrian main boulevard of the city, where street performers, residents and tourists keep this lively hub happening into the late hours of the night. From the enormous Plaza de Catalunya at one end to the city’s waterfront at the other, you’ll find everything from pet shops and florists to museums and souvenir shops. Barri Gotic Just off Las Ramblas lies the old quarter of the city, in whose labyrinthine streets and tree-lined plazas you’ll find remnants of the ancient Roman walls, and a gorgeous Gothic cathedral. Spend the day wandering, then relax at a cafe on the plaza. Parc Guell You’ll find visitors from all over the world here, exploring the strange monuments and landscapes of Gaudi’s surreal vision of a city park. Leave at least an afternoon to explore the huge grounds, and take the bus or metro, as it’s far from the city center. The Beach Get away from the city and bathe in the Mediterranean. On Sundays in the summertime you’ll even find live music performances in the evening. What is your favorite free thing to do in Barcelona? Tell us here. <<Barcelona Home Cheap Barcelona>> |
