El Molino Barcelona

Burlesque is back. Barcelona’s favourite cabaret house has been given a razzle-dazzle revamp courtesy of Fernando Salas.

MACBA

MACBA

One of those museums that arouses more interest among students of architecture than art lovers. While not Guggenheim-ish impressive, it fascinates.

Transbordador Aeri

Transbordador Aeri

You could go for a drink at the W’s Eclipse bar for similar views, but then you’d miss out on the hair-raising ride.

Palau de la Musica Catalana

Palau de la Musica Catalana

A guided tour is fine, but a concert even better, regardless of what's on.

Hospital de Sant Pau

Hospital de Sant Pau

It might seem a bit morbid to have a hospital on the list of sights, but take a walk in the gardens even if you’re not in need of medical attention.

Santa Maria del Mar

Santa Maria del Mar

Even if you aren’t religious, then there’s something meditatively calming about this breathtaking space.

Cathedral-La Seu

Cathedral-La Seu

Big alright, but frankly not that special.

Poble Espanyol

Poble Espanyol

Kitsch but somehow impressive. A bit like Disneyland without the mouse.

Las Ramblas

Las Ramblas

The pick-pocketers must have a pact with the guidebooks, as that's the only rational reason that this is included.

Sagrada Familia

Sagrada Familia

This being the unofficial landmark of the city, you might feel obliged to visit but inside it’s still only cranes and scaffolding.

Camp Nou-FC Barcelona

Camp Nou-FC Barcelona

Possibly the most popular football club in the world, and not without reason. Josep Guardiola, Gerard Piquet and Victor Valdes are just three.

La Pedrera-Casa Mila

La Pedrera-Casa Mila

This may be Gaudí’s most impressive building. Like a grower, it surprises positively when you get to know it more intimately.

Park Guëll

Park Guëll

Barcelona is Gaudí, Gaudí is Barcelona and no other place is more Gaudí than this modernist wonder.

Aquarium

Aquarium

Stop by and admire the groundbreaking structure and clean lines, but save yourself the admission if you’re looking to be entertained.

Mies van der Rohe Pavilion

Museu Picasso

Museu Picasso

One of Barcelona’s most visited museums but, unless you’re a hardcore Picasso fan, one you might want to skip if you’re on a tight schedule.
