Barcelona feels a bit surreal – appropriate, since Salvador Dali spent time here and Spanish Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí designed several of the city’s buildings. Stepping into Gaudí’s Church of the Sacred Family is a bit like falling through the looking glass - a journey that you can continue with a visit to Park Güell. Sip sangria at a sidewalk café in Las Ramblas while watching flamboyant street performers, then create your own moveable feast by floating from tapas bar to tapas bar.

Since opening its doors in 2003, Base Elements has functioned as a multi-faceted gallery- acting as both a workshop and studio- where space and forum collide.There is no doubt that Barcelona is one of the world’s hubs for Graffiti and Street Art. The walls and buildings of the city have become a canvas for both unknown taggers and globally known urban artists. With the concept of providing a literal and figurative canvas for such independent artists, Robert Burt (California native) and his wife Monica Riu (Barcelona Native) founded Base Elements Urban Art Gallery in 2003 with hopes of creating a space where such street artists could not only showcase their talents, but also be embraced as true artists.
If you love graffiti, pop art and contemporary artists then this place is a must visit. This was our second visit to this gallery in the last four years and it didn’t disappoint. The owner was so kind to spend time showing us the incredible collections by talented local artists and we even met a couple during our last visit. We talked art, architecture and politics all surrounding the gallery and it’s contents. Our 10 & 12 year old girls also enjoyed the experience both times. Next time.. we’re not leaving empty handed.

Ancient and medieval Barcelona in the monumental ensemble beneath Plaça del Rei, organised in the 20th century. A tour through 4,000 square metres in an underground archaeological site that takes us from Barcino to Barcinona. Exhibition on the emergence of the medieval city. Visit to the Palau Reial Major palace.
My 17 and 21 year old daughters, husband and I visited this museum on a weekday afternoon. There was no line and in fact few other visitors while we were there. There was a very interesting display of Barcelona and surrounding region from prehistory through the 13th century, including tools, currency, and life story. For me the real magic is UNDER the MUHBA where Roman ruins have been excavated. The manner in which they are presented, with audio and written explanations of the city composition, clothes dying and washing, wine making, roads, and manner in which structures were reused was fascinating for all of us. The price was the deal of our Barcelona visit, at 7 euros per adult and 5 euros per student.
