Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Just wandering the intertwined roads just big enough for a mini car. The pedestrian friendly roads take you to visit everything imaginable from shoes to hats and even Christmas ornaments.. you will find local artisans and tempting bakeries. A must to do any time of day!

    The cathedral of Barcelona is situated at the gothic quarter in the heart of the city.This cathedral is beautiful on the outside and even more stunning inside.Basic tickets cost around 8 euros per adult but you can also buy a ticket to go to the roof section too.The cathedral is from the 14th/15th century.It has beautiful stained glass throughout.There is also a small pond of water with stunning white live geese in the cloister of the cathedral.It has a gift shop next to the geese area..Highly recommend yes to visit..You will walk around just looking at the ceiling as it’s soo stunning.

    Very informative, and I very much liked the inclusivity towards the LGBTQ+ community <333
    It contains postcards, artwork, porcelains, sculptures and costumes etc. from Russia, Greece, China, Japan and many other countries, which you might not see anywhere else, and tackles a lot of "taboo" subjects.

    Fun place to have a meal or a drink just off La Rambla. Lots of restaurants with indoor and outdoor seating.

    Went for a shark dive in aquarium tank with dive leader, and it was amazing!! Wish I'd brought my camera for all the shark, ray, eels and groupers present (some aquariums forbid personal cameras). Found lots of cool shark teeth which is always easy in an aquarium tank ;-) !! Rest of aquarium was also lovely, lots of cool species. Souvenir store a bit thin on variety? A bit pricey Eu300 for a 45min dive, but it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so why not??

    When we arrived at Catalunya Square we immediately took a walk to Port Vell along the La Ramblas.
    We sat on a bench at Port Vell and enjoyed the scenery and the beautiful surroundings.

    In a fabulous home that was a former major bank, a great collection of the famous and historical are here to be greeted.

    Realism of the personages is impressive. It was fun moving along seeing how many of the hundreds a name could be put to.

    A lovely tranquil (at least at our visit) Plaza has a duo of landmarks.

    Outstandingly, the first is the eponymous great Church. Secondly at the centre is a fine fountain dedicated to life and all its mysteries.

    This is a tall monument between Las Ramblas and Rambla de Mar. One can go up for a fee and get a view from the top. It looks like there is some restoration going on right now, so check their website for opening times before coming to climb it.

    The price of €9 is a little steep considering that this museum is on the smaller side. The audioguide was fantastic and gave a lot of info that I would've missed out on. The museum covers the history of Marijuana and hemp from ancient times, the wars, to pop culture. There is a large collection of glass bongs some of which are nothing less than pieces of pure art. The section on the history of hemp was really fascinating, and even the section about the legality of marijuana was more information than lobbying. However, the exhibit on how marijuana affects the body was very lacking and spoke more about CBD oil than marijuana itself.

    It is a lovely harbour area in Barcelona where you can really enjoy a sunny day. There are several sculptures/works of art as well as a range of restaurants, etc.

    I somewhat stumbled upon this hidden gem. The museum is an unbelievable collection of sculptor Fredric Mares. What he amassed is beyond belief. The museum is wonderfully organized, easy to move through and uses a variety of display cabinets to keep things visually interesting. My one suggestion would be to spend a bit of time with the map and plan out your route according to your personal interest. There is just so much to look at that by the time I got to the top floor I was feeling a bit saturated and wasn’t appreciating things as much if I would have prioritized my route through the museum. The sword collection was a highlight for me.

    This church was at the end of the street where we stayed, so we went in for a short visit. From the outside it wasn't much to look at from our end, but inside was quite a surprise.

    Inside, the church has beautiful stained glass windows and different sections with vaulted ceilings and little chapels between the pillars.
