Home Page Day 1 Day 2 Day 4 Day 5 Day 6 Day 7 Day 8 Afterthought

Arc de Triomf

To start off our third day in Spain, we head to the Arc de Triomf. This is a memorial arch that was built back in 1888 for the Barcelona World Fair. It's the entranceway for the Ciutadella Park.

Arenas de Barcelona

Arenas de Barcelona is a commerical shopping complex in Plaça d'España. It's fairly popular, even with the locals.

Torres Venecianes

Torres Venecianes is the name of the pair of towers that sit in Plaça d'España.

Plaça de Josep Puig i Cadafalch

This square is dedicated to Josep Puig i Cadafalch, a Catalan contemporary architect of Antoni Gaudi.

Plaça de les Cascades

This is yet another captivating square. I know there are a lot of these in this blog, but we see them and at least pass by them really often.

Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya

We've arrived to our second art museum in this blog. The Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya is another beautiful art museum.

Montjuïc Castle

Montjuïc Castle is a really pretty, historic castle. It's an old military fortress from at least 1640 turned tourist attraction. In my opinion, even though it is an aged military fortress, it's still really pretty.

Mercat de Sant Antoni

Mercat de Sant Antoni is another food market in our list. These food markets are fantastic, regardless if you're there for the food or just to marvel at the place.


This is the end of our Day 3. Lots of pretty sights to see in Spain, and much more to come.
