18 Top Things to Do in Barcelona, From Famous to Hidden Gems atravelingfairy.com

Wondering what the top things to do in Barcelona are? I have quite the list for you. I used to live in Barcelona, and the city is near and dear to my heart. I’ve gotten so used to seeing the city and walking through its wondrous streets, and I know it like the back of my hand now.

For some time in university, I lived next to the Arc de Triomf and took the metro station there every day. I’ve been to all the Barcelona tourist attractions like the Sagrada Familia—which is well-deserving of its title—but I’ve also spent countless hours working on a laptop in little neighborhood cafes that tourists would never step into. That puts me in a unique position to introduce you to the top things to do in Barcelona, from the popular tourist attractions to the hidden gems that people don’t know so much!
