Try to avoid visiting on weekends if you can. I was packed in like sardines and couldn’t get good pictures. Weekdays are way less crowded!
Columbus Monument
Mila's House
Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Saint Eulalia
Don't forget to check the schedule for the mass. I stumbled upon a service and it added a special vibe to my visit, even though I didn't plan for it.
Triumphal Arch
I suggest visiting early in the morning, like around 9 AM. You'll find fewer crowds, which means better photos without random people in the background.
I thought the architecture was stunning, but some areas around the arch can be tricky to spot, so keep your eyes peeled for the small paths that lead to it!
CosmoCaixa
If you're into interactive exhibits, head straight to the 'Flooded Forest' and 'Biosphere' areas first. Those got super busy by lunchtime!
I think packing your own snacks is a smart move. The onsite café can be a bit pricey, and there are lots of spots to chill and munch inside.
I recommend getting there right when it opens at 10 AM. It’s way less crowded then, and you can explore without feeling rushed. Plus, you can snap those Insta-worthy pics!
Museum Picasso
I recommend getting your tickets online beforehand. It saved me from waiting in that long line outside, and I got right in! Plus, sometimes you can find online discounts
Check out their temporary exhibits too! I was surprised by how they brought in fresh perspectives on Picasso, it added a lot to my experience, plus it was less crowded than the main collection
