Don't miss seeing this park - absolutely outstanding and very unusual... We approached via a steep access road / staircase, which was great, as we avoided the long uphill walk most other visitors seemed to be facing. More

The park is a 5 - 10 minute hike up a steep hill if you are taking a tour bus. While the views and the park are worth the effort if you are having mobility issues take a cab! Also, the cafe in the park is simple but not over priced. More

We spent a lovely morning here. A beautiful park, and with Gaudi's touch, so different to any other I had been to. I'd never heard of "Gaudi" before, but now keen to see more. Lovely views over Barcelona too More

A must see. Go early in the day to avoid the crowds. Allow at least 45mins or more to walk through. More

If you leave Barcelona without seeing this place, do not consider yourself as you have seen Barcelona at all. The harmony of colours, the irregular shapes of buildings and the strange out of our time atmosphere takes you some place diffrent then we all know. It was early in the morning when i got there and since being a open... More

Gaudi was legendary, even during his own life, as an Architect, of course, but may have been even more gifted as an Engineer. Seeing this park you are going to think that Gaudi was tripping on acid when he designed it. Built in the early 1900's this place is without a doubt an interesting and thought-provoking photo opp. Definitely worthy... More

Gaudi's home, mosaic benches and walls, views of the city - all lovely and enjoyed a glass of wine on the terrace. Thought it was worth the bus ride from central part of town. More

Incredible to think that this park was constructed a century ago. If you're an admirer of Gaudi's work or simply intrigued by it then you must visit Parc Guell. It's a bit out of the way and a long walk from the nearest metro stop, so make sure you allow some time. We arrived mid morning on a Friday and... More
