My dad used to take me to local universities, whenever we were visiting new cities- Sorry to all my dad´s effort, I was never a good student.
Even it was not only the influence of my father, this library is a place recommendable to visit. It has a long history until it became a library: water tower, municipal asylum, fire service store, changing room and garage of the Municipal Police force, justice archive..
Natural light coming into the interior of red bricks from high ceiling is beautiful.

This 1877 builiding was entirelly remodelled by Antonio Gaudí in 1905-1907. Is a jewell and you need see the entire building at least once if you go to the 'Ciutat Comtal'. I'm sure you will like the organic facade, the interior designs and specially the terrace.

Gaudi was the most remarkable Modernisme architect in Catalonia and you will recognize this particular style in other buildings in the city.

Les Rambles is the most visited place in Barcelona. A wide and long street where you will find flower and pet shops, human statues, live shows and more. There is always people walking up and down, day and night.
Please, watch out for your bags and personal belongings, because being the most visited place invites some "people" to want what is not their's! ;)
Without any doubt, a must-see.

Amusement park. But old. Very old. It's one of the three oldest amusement parks in Europe. The park and the tram that brings you up the hill to Tibidabo was opened and built in the beginning of the 20th century. The Avion, Carrousel, Ferris Wheel are more than 50 years old, at least. Back to the Classics.
The Ferris Wheel looks small, but remember, it's already more than 500ms up the hill. You can see the attractions of Barcelona: Sagrada Familia, Torre Agbar: only if you can open your eyes.

Whether you´re a big fan of boats or not, you´re gonna love the cafe of Museu Marítim, if you´re a coffee-time lover.
Located just a street next to the famous Las Ramblas, 365 days full of tourists, surprisingly this museum is very quiet - even not many locals are aware of this place.
The building used to be the royal shipyard, built in the 13th century. It's built with heavy massive stones, however, the sunshine brightens up the space through the window that reaches up to 14m.

Every friday, from 18:30h to 20:30h (approx) you can listen a funny Gospel group (from Barcelona's institut of Gospel). They sing a lot of songs from Elvi's to Disney hits in a "gospel way". Very very funny!

Impressive garden complex designed by Gaudi with lots of beautiful architectural elements.
