Gardens of Barcelona


The gardens and parks of Barcelona are quite stunning. The local populations love to spend time in their parks and public squares and take advantage of all the open areas for everyone to enjoy. Attached is a tour of some of the wonderful gardens and parks I visited while I explored this gorgeous city.

    What a cool garden! But I'm a little weirded out by all the cacti and agaves. It's always surreal to see them outside America.

    Seeing your tour photos, I now realize what I missed when I was in Barcelona last year. I spent 5 days there, yet the only park I visited was Park Quel. You were good at discovering all the hidden beauties. Well-documented and wonderful sights.

    Hi,

    Beautiful photo, I'd love to have a pong large enough to hold Lilies one day! They're just so stunning.

    I've never been to Barcelona and never imagined that it would be a place so full of cacti. Thanks for the tour!

    Noel, What a visual treat! I am not very familiar with the city of Barcelona and so really enjoyed seeing the gardens and parks so beautifully photographed.

    What a wonderful tour! Especially the gardens of Gaudi, my inspiration for making mosaics.
