Casa Vicens
Casa Vicens is Gaudí's first architectural work, widely recognized by the art world as the origin of all his whimsical ideas. Located in Barcelona's vibrant Gràcia district, this building is a private residence blending Neo-Mudéjar, exotic Oriental, and Neoclassical styles. Construction began in 1883, incorporating diverse materials such as iron, glazed tiles, colored papier-mâché, mosaic tiles, and rough red bricks. With his unique craftsmanship, Gaudí harmonized these elements, showcasing the intrinsic value of materials in architecture. As a devoted naturalist, Gaudí drew decorative inspiration from local flora like palm leaves, marigolds, ivy, and daisies. He meticulously integrated these motifs into the house—wall paintings, roof ornaments, and balcony patterns all echo nature's forms, blurring the boundaries between indoors and outdoors. Every corner exudes a sense of natural balance. In his 1878 book *La Casa Pairal*, Gaudí elaborated on his philosophy of private residences and the concept of "home." These ideas found tangible expression in Casa Vicens, marking his first attempt to merge theory with practice and laying the foundation for his signature style. The house brilliantly demonstrates the beauty and power of design. Later masterpieces like Park Güell, Casa Batlló, Casa Milà, and the Sagrada Família further cemented the bond between Barcelona and Gaudí's name. As one of the early 20th century's foremost architects, the city fueled his genius, while his creations became its aesthetic legacy. Casa Vicens was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2005. Until 2014, it remained a private residence before undergoing extensive restoration and opening as a museum in November 2017. After two years of refinements, this architectural gem unveiled its splendor to the public after a century of seclusion.Barcelona · 48.4km from Bages
Recinte Modernista de Sant Pau
The Recinte Modernista de Sant Pau is located in Barcelona and is a masterpiece of Catalan modernist architecture, completed by the architect duo Lluís Domènech i Montaner and his son Pere Domènech i Roura. The father, Lluís Domènech i Montaner, led the design, while his son Pere oversaw the final construction after his passing. In 1997, the entire complex was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. After its medical functions were relocated to a new building, the site underwent comprehensive restoration and now serves as a museum and cultural center open to the public. Unlike traditional hospitals with a centralized main building, this one was planned as a "hospital city in a garden": small red-brick pavilions adorned with colorful ceramics and mosaics are scattered among gardens and green spaces, connected by underground passages spanning over a kilometer. Sunlight and ventilation were central to the design, and the gardens themselves were intended for patient recuperation. First-time travelers often mistake the site for a palace. The administration building near the main entrance is the most lavishly decorated structure in the complex, featuring a towering clock tower. Inside, the lofty main hall showcases stained glass, mosaics, and carved railings, with sculptures by artists like Pau Gargallo. The mosaic murals on the walls trace the hospital's history since the early 15th century, worth savoring at a leisurely pace. The visitor route is straightforward: enter through the columned hall (once the emergency department) in the administration building's basement, follow the underground passage to the Sant Salvador Pavilion, which opened in 1916. The two-level exhibition covers the hospital's 600-year history and the architects' works. Then, cross the garden to visit the Sant Rafael Pavilion, restored to its 1920s ward appearance, and the surgery pavilion, which features large north-facing windows for even natural light during operations. Finally, return to the administration building to explore its various rooms. Note that some buildings, like the chapel, are not open to the public and can only be viewed from the outside. The entire complex is angled relative to the surrounding streets, with its main axis aligned toward the Sagrada Família, connected by a straight tree-lined avenue. The two sites can easily be visited on the same day.Barcelona · 48.6km from Bages
Cathedral of Barcelona
The Cathedral of Barcelona is located in the Gothic Quarter of the old town, officially named the "Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Saint Eulalia"—it is not Gaudí's Sagrada Família, but the true cathedral of Barcelona. The main structure was built between the late 13th and 15th centuries in the Catalan Gothic style, featuring a broad nave and a solid presence. The current facade and central tower, which form the frontage, were added in the early 20th century based on 15th-century original designs in the Neo-Gothic style, with a row of gargoyles along the cornice displaying varied poses, worth a closer look. The chapels in the cathedral cloister enshrine the patron saints of various craft guilds. The choir stalls, religious frescoes, sculptures, and exquisite gold and silver artifacts in the Santa Eulalia chapel are dazzlingly splendid.Barcelona · 51.3km from Bages

It's best to go for photos when the sun is shining. They offer free audio guides with headphones, which is very convenient. They even have Chinese-language audio guides available. You can see the Sagrada Familia from the rooftop. Pretty good.

A hidden gem in Barcelona's Gothic Quarter. This museum offers an exceptional exhibition from beginning to end and is truly a must-see. While Picasso's masterpieces are the main attraction, the temporary and featured exhibitions are equally impressive. The museum is beautifully curated, and the admission fee is very reasonable, making it one of the best cultural experiences I have ever had.

The Palace of Music itself is a work of art and well worth a visit. The flamenco dance performances in the evenings are also very special and highly professional, with unique lighting that creates an immersive and atmospheric experience.

It's Gaudí's debut work and the starting point of modernist architecture in Barcelona. Compared to the romance of Casa Batlló, this place is full of the fusion of Islamic and Japanese styles. The walls covered in marigold tiles, the exquisite wrought-iron birdcage windows, and the dreamy smoking room create a strong visual impact. Moreover, it's relatively less crowded, making for a very comfortable experience.
