Palau Güell

Before our flight, we enjoyed the last day in Barcelona. I think this place is my most favorite building designed by Gaudi. The Palau Güell is a mansion designed by the architect Antoni Gaudí for the industrial tycoon Eusebi Güell and built between 1886 and 1888. As editing my video, it came out almost 10 minutes virtual tour for those who are busy or missed opportunities to visit one of the best buildings in Barcelona.

the Castell de Montjuïc

Montjuïc is a great place to enjoy panoramic views of Barcelona. The Castell de Montjuïc fortress is located on the summit of the hill, and it's surrounded by imposing ramparts. There are several large-caliber guns mounted on the fortress, which were used to defend the port area. The fortress is open to the public, and you can walk around the flat roof and corner bastions for some great views of the cityscape, sea, and mountains. Montjuïc is also home to some great museums, like the Fundació Joan Miró and the Catalan National Museum of Art (MNAC).

Picasso Museum

The Picasso Museum is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Barcelona. If you're looking for an interesting and educational attraction to visit during your time in the city, be sure to check out the Picasso Museum!Make sure to check out the beautiful building it's housed in as well!

Hiking up Montserrat

On the 4rd day in Barcelona, we were not in the city, and we did a day trip to Montserrat. Many tourists take a cable car or a tram to the abbey, and you can find other channels sharing their experience. We accidentally entered the wrong route and we took a hard route and hiked the mountain without a cable car or tram. Hope this vlog is helpful for those who want to hike the mountain and you guys like my vlog video.

all in one

We woke up early and headed to Park Güell, which was a beautiful park designed by Antoni Gaudí. We then made our way to Sagrada Família, where we were able to go inside the church. After that, we went to see some Flamenco dancers perform. It was an amazing day and I can't wait to go back!

- Park Güell is a beautiful park designed by Antoni Gaudí that is definitely worth a visit.

- The Sagrada Família is an impressive church that you should definitely check out if you're in Barcelona.

- Flamenco dancing is a must-see if you're in Barcelona - the performers are so talented!

This day in Barcelona was my wife's birthday, so I planed for the big 3 things to do in Barcelona. We enjoyed Gaudi's Park Guell, Sagrada Familia in the day time, and a flamenco show at night.

A city of Gaudi's masterwork

Gaudi was an architect, sculptor and painter who is most famous for his work in Barcelona. Gaudi had an obsession with nature which can be seen throughout all of his work. Many people come to Barcelona just to experience Gaudi's architecture first hand; it really is worth the trip!

It has been 14 years since we visited Barcelona when we were 20 years old. I know how much my wife sacrifices her life for what I love to do. All I could do for her birthday is taking her to a memorial place for both of us.
