Things to do in Valles Oriental

A lovely place to visit! Beautiful views and a great experience. The kids really enjoyed it. Highly recommended for families!

The tour guide was Chinese and gave an excellent explanation. He explained everything in detail, from the history of the Sagrada Familia to its present state and some interesting tidbits. The scenery inside the Sagrada Familia was also very beautiful. Thumbs up!

Gaudí was simply a genius. At the time, he broke free from conventional architectural understanding, abandoning straight lines in favor of curves, and drawing all his inspiration from the ocean. P.S.: There's a surprise on the top floor.

Casa Batlló is definitely worth experiencing, and the gold ticket is well worth it. It comes with a handheld iPad that provides a fairly comprehensive explanation. Even with a 9 AM ticket, there were already quite a few people there.

A hidden gem in Barcelona's Gothic Quarter. This museum offers an exceptional exhibition from beginning to end and is truly a must-see. While Picasso's masterpieces are the main attraction, the temporary and featured exhibitions are equally impressive. The museum is beautifully curated, and the admission fee is very reasonable, making it one of the best cultural experiences I have ever had.

The musical hall is very pretty and chandelier are extraordinary design, cafe is comfortable

An interesting visit of this former hospital complex (St Paul’s hospital) in Barcelona with beautiful architectural design! A nice balance between the history of development of medical technology in this former hospital and also the architectural elements of this master piece by Lluís Domènech (Antoni Gaudi’s teacher). The site offers audioguides for visitors and it also set clear signposts along the routes of visit. Overall a comfortable and visitor-friendly tourist spot! It’s around 20 mins walk from Sagrada Família so it’s good to pack both visits in one day. You can therefore also enjoy a fascinating view of the Sagrada Família from the hills here!

Casa Vincennes Review (approx. 150 words) Casa Vincennes, Gaudí's first detached house and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is bursting with vibrant colors. The exterior, based on reddish-brown brick, is adorned with green and white marigold-patterned tiles, creating an exotic atmosphere. Inside, painted domes, floral and bird murals, and exquisite wood carvings complement each other, with natural materials used throughout. Sunlight filters through the windows, creating play of light and shadow that adds depth and dimension to the colorful hues. While it lacks the grandeur of the Sagrada Familia, it feels like a dreamy, colorful cottage hidden in a residential area. Every detail reveals Gaudí's early, whimsical, and romantic imagination, making a stroll through its interior incredibly therapeutic.
