A hill with a Modernista park and a lookout point
From the Park Güell stop on the Blue Route located on Travessera de Dalt, you can walk up Carrer de Larrard to the hill where Park Güell and the Gaudí House Museum are located. It is approximately a 15-minute walk.
The Park Güell stop is the starting point of a walk up to one of the world’s most original parks, where Antoni Gaudí combined nature with architecture in a monumental complex that had been conceived as a luxury development for Barcelona’s wealthiest families. On one side of Plaça de la Natura, delimited by the famous wavy bench that is undertaken in the trencadís broken-tile mosaic style and offers amazing views of the city, is the Gaudí House Museum, which was the architect’s home for almost 20 years.
