Park Güell is one of the most popular destinations in Barcelona, with much to see and many places to take great pictures. These are some of the best:
Turó de les Tres Creus
The Hill of Three Crosses is the highest point in the park, offering one of the most breathtaking views of the Catalan capital. It’s an ideal spot to watch the sunset, and it’s a popular place for selfies with the cityscape in the background.
Hypostyle Hall
Located near the entrance, this hall features a forest of Doric-style columns supporting the park’s central terrace. The ceiling is adorned with colorful mosaics, with each color representing different seasons and lunar phases. It’s a striking example of Gaudí’s integration of art and nature.
The Viaduct and Walkways
Designed during Gaudí’s naturalist phase, the park’s viaducts and walkways are inspired by nature, with stone columns that appear to have grown naturally from the ground. These pathways are perfect for a leisurely stroll while admiring Gaudí’s architectural genius.
Did you know? (3 Interesting Facts!)
- Park Guell was originally intended to be a high-class housing development, but when the original plan failed it was converted into a public park.
- Gaudí lived in Park Guell from 1906 until his death in 1926. His house, which is now the Gaudí House Museum (Casa Museu Gaudí), is open for visitors.
- The Doric columns in Hypostyle Hall are actually water collectors. Rainwater that falls on the main plaza above filters through into an underground cistern, which was meant to supply the houses in the park.
