It was very nice, quiet and a pleasant atmosphere. If you're really prepared to take the long walk across the whole site, make sure you bring water! Especially on sunny days.

It surprised me! I expected it to be imbued with architecture, instead the architectural structures frame the green park, perfectly blended and enhancing its beauty. Absolutely clean and with attention to detail, supervised by kind, courteous, welcoming people always ready to offer help with a smile. Enthusiastic! 🥰

Park Güell is a must-visit spot in Barcelona, especially if you’re a fan of Gaudí’s work. The park is full of colorful mosaics, whimsical architecture, and stunning city views. Highlights include the famous mosaic lizard (El Drac), the serpentine bench, and the impressive columns of the Hypostyle Hall. The park combines nature with surreal design in a way that feels magical and unique. It’s a great place to stroll, relax, and take photos—but it can get quite crowded, so booking tickets ahead is a good idea. Also, be prepared for some uphill walking. Overall, it’s a beautiful and inspiring place that captures the creative spirit of Barcelona.

Visiting Park Güell in Barcelona was truly a magical experience. Designed by the famous architect Antoni Gaudí, the park feels like stepping into a fairytale. The colorful mosaics, winding pathways, and unique architectural shapes create an atmosphere that is both artistic and peaceful. One of the highlights for me was the iconic terrace with the long serpentine bench covered in vibrant tiles – the view of Barcelona from there is simply breathtaking. I also enjoyed walking through the shaded stone columns and discovering hidden corners full of charm. The park is not just beautiful, but also inspiring, reflecting Gaudí’s creativity and connection with nature. It is a must-see attraction that combines art, architecture, and relaxation in one unforgettable place.

Park Güell is a great place for walking and relaxation. If you go in August it will be very hot and hard to walk, as what I experienced. Still enjoyed the park and its architecture.
Getting Started
Arrive at the recommended entrance on Avinguda del Santuari de Sant Josep de la Muntanya, where escalator access is available. Present your ticket at the main gate for validation and proceed through a brief security check before entering the park.

-
During the summer months, it is recommended to bring hats/caps to protect from the sun, and water for hydration due to high temperatures.

-
For visitors with mobility problems, Park Güell offers two free wheelchairs for hire (subject to availability).
-
The tourist coach car park has three places for people with reduced mobility.
Additional information
-
During peak season, April to August, expect a considerable wait time at entry.
-
Note: Park Güell has three entrances—choose what suits you! Av. del Santuari de Sant Josep de la Muntanya has escalators (though it’s steep), Carretera del Carmel (nº 23) is ideal for coach drop-off, and Carrer d’Olot brings you right into the Monumental Zone.
-
If you'd like to skip a lot of climbing and stairs, a great option is to take public transport like Bus #24 or grab a taxi. This will get you to the entrance at Carretera del Carmel, which is just a short 100 meters from the bus stop. You'll find the area with the monuments only another 100 meters in, and mostly flat 200-meter stroll!
