## How the two days work

Day one is the big one: the Sagrada Família in the morning, then Casa Batlló, La Rambla and the Gothic Quarter after lunch. Day two starts on the hill in Gràcia at Park Güell, then Casa Milà, and after lunch Montjuïc with its museum and fountain.

Park Güell and Casa Milà are timed, so pick a morning slot for the park and a midday one for the house. MNAC is closed on Mondays and the Magic Fountain doesn't run every evening, so check days ahead.

Remove any stop with the cross or drag it with ≡, add something nearby, and the timings update.

## Day two: Güell, La Pedrera and Montjuïc

In the morning, Park Güell: the salamander, the serpent bench and the view from Turó de les Tres Creus. On the way down you can stop at [Casa Vicens](https://yesgo.io/spain/barcelona/casa-vicens) in Gràcia. Then Casa Milà and its chimney-warrior roof, with lunch in the Eixample.

After lunch, take the metro to Plaça d'Espanya and walk up to the Palau Nacional. The museum and its Romanesque frescoes take a couple of hours; at sunset, step onto the terrace in front of the palace and walk down to the Magic Fountain for the show.

## What else to see

With a third day, add [El Born](https://yesgo.io/spain/barcelona/santa-maria-del-mar), the [Picasso Museum](https://yesgo.io/spain/barcelona/picasso-museum), [Parc de la Ciutadella](https://yesgo.io/spain/barcelona/parc-de-la-ciutadella) and [Barceloneta](https://yesgo.io/spain/barcelona/barceloneta) beach. A fourth is for [Montserrat](https://yesgo.io/spain/barcelona/montserrat).

## Tips

- Book Park Güell for a morning slot.
- MNAC is closed on Mondays.
- Check the fountain schedule on the day.
- Churches require covered shoulders and knees and no beachwear; walking around town in swimwear is not allowed.
- Spain uses the euro. Cards and contactless are accepted almost everywhere. Book the Sagrada Família, Park Güell and the Gaudí houses ahead on their official sites, which list entry times and closing days.
