What people say
Lana Nguyen
"Art lovers, this is for you. Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya is by far the most comprehensive museum in Barcelona, with art from the Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque periods, all the way up to the Modern. There’s even photography. Your museum ticket not only gains you entry to the museum but also the rooftop viewpoint. The museum is located on Montjuïc, a large hilltop green space and viewpoint in Barcelona in the historic Palau Nacional. This makes the visit all the better because you can explore the whole area, including the Montjuïc Castle and Botanical Gardens. Admission is about 12 Euros."

From these elevated vantage points, the city unfolds like a grand tapestry, with iconic landmarks like the Magic Fountain, Plaça d'Espanya, and the majestic Montjuïc unfolding below. As you absorb the artistic treasures within the museum, don't miss the chance to step onto the terraces—a sublime fusion of art and cityscape that captures the spirit of Catalonia."
