Exhibits the most extensive collection of the
artist's work, especially from his early periods
JOAN MIRO FOUNDATION

MAREMAGNUM
Night bars, huge discoteques and a variety of
shopping centers.
POBLE ESPANYOL

you can - in just 2 hours - see the diversity
of architectural styles from villages all
over Spain. At night, Poble Espanyol has
a special program, restaurants, clubs, cabarets,
etc.

Barcelona has a large gay community, and
there are a lot of gay clubs around. Those
are highly recommended simply because they
are fun.

there. Bars, pubs, restaurants, discoteques,
etc. |

This neighbourhood is lively day and night.
There is always something going on. A lot of
restaurants, bars, clubs, live music, etc.

but the most famous one is surely an albino
gorilla named Snowflake

Just beside the Zoo, so you might consider
visiting both places in one day. This is a

green grass and a small lake. You can rent
a row-boat, a bicycle, or visit the magical
botanical garden

'92 Olimpic Games. You can meet there Barcelona
