Beautiful Barcelona - City day tour

#citydaytours During a recent holiday in Spain. I decided to skip most of the big and expensive cities in favour of offbeat. That was until the last day, when i was due to fly out of Spain via Barcelona. I arrived early morning in Barcelona with over 18 hours to spare before I head home. I bought a day long Barcelona pass, which allowed me the use of hop on hop off bus and free entry to some places. Here is what the day long itinerary looked like 1 - Placa Catunya - After arriving in the early hours I had breakfast at the airport and headed to Placa Catunya. 2 - The Gracia passage - This is a fine street to walk on with some sights of interest starting with the Casa Lleo i Morera by Luis Domenech i Montaner, then the Casa Amatller by Puig y Cadalfach, and finishing with the astonishing Casa Batllo, by none other than Antoni Gaudi. Lastly, the ingenious Casa Milla. 3 - Sagrada Famillia - With the blue line of the hop on hop off bus you will be dropped here. This is a wonderful spot and your Barcelona pass gives you free entry. 4 - Park Guell - Get on the blue line again and explore yet another gaudi gem park Guell. Once again your Barcelona pass helps you skip the line and free entry. 5 - Food Hour - This should be mid day and you need to recharge. Head to Gracia street and grab a bite. You have numerous tapas bars and other options. 6 - Camp Nou - You cannot just miss barca's home ground. Hop on the blue line again and head to the other side of the city where the legendary Camp Nou football stadium awaits. 7 - Las arena & Olympic stadium - Switch to the red line and head to Las arena before taking a very enjoyable ride through the leafy hills of Montjuic mountain. You might want to alight at any of the Joan Miro Foundation, Olympic Stadium, or Miramar viewing point, if it interests you. 8 - Las Ramblas - You wouldn’t want to have to cross this street every day, as its positively jam-packed with tourists, but on the other hand, you wouldn’t want to miss it either. It’s a wide, lively street, flanked by theatres, restaurants and palaces. Don't miss the lively Placa Reial. 9 - Depending on time and preferences. You could enjoy a flamenco performance here or even a dinner. If time is a constraint. Now you would head back to the airport to relax a while before the flight.#spain #barcelona #travel #shopping #cafe #food #art #culture #womentravel #womenwhotravel #beachlife #flowerlover
