Barcelona 4-Day Itinerary - Gaudí, Markets & Classic Restaurants
See Barcelona in four days with a tight, walkable route that saves time and skips tourist traps. Move from Sagrada Família and Casa Batlló to Park Güell (book timed tickets; go early or late), browse La Boqueria market, and wander the Gothic Quarter and Picasso Museum. Eat like a local: breakfast on Carrer del Bisbe, lunch on Carrer de la Diputació, El Born plates around Passeig del Born, tapas on Carrer de Blai (Poble Sec) and in Gràcia near Carrer de Verdi, and dinners by Plaça Reial or Passeig de Picasso. Pro tips: reserve evening tables, carry a reusable water bottle for uphill sections, use metro/funicular to cut transfers, and pack a light sarong for Barceloneta.
Barcelona 5-Day Itinerary - Tips, Classic Restaurants & Faster Routes
A sharp, 5-day plan to see Gaudí, beaches and museums without scrambling. Pro moves: prebook Sagrada Família and Park Güell, use the Metro between Gaudí sites and start early to dodge crowds. Eat smart: try market stalls at La Boqueria (La Rambla, 91) and Mercat de Sant Antoni (Carrer del Comte d'Urgell, 1); reserve classic tables - 7 Portes (waterfront), Can Majó (La Barceloneta), Cal Pep (El Born) or Els Quatre Gats (Gothic), and order raciones/porções to share. Quick payoff: fewer lines, faster connections and better meals.
