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.

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.

Philip was an excellent guide, he speaks passionately about the park and makes you fall in love through his telling of the place. Visiting Parc Güell through his words was very nice. I would like to emphasize the passion he puts into telling the story because he takes you, step by step, step by step inside the attraction, making you appreciate every detail. Truly a recommended tour and, if you are lucky enough to have him as your guide, you can be assured of the quality of the service provided.

We booked a last-minute tour of Sagrada Familia and Parc Guell on our recent trip to Barcelona as we'd left it too late to get individual tickets, and we are so glad we did! Jaime from the local partner, world of wonders, was fantastic! He was friendly, knowledgeable, a good communicator, and made it a really special day.

Top things to do in Barcelona

Park Guell | Antoni Gaudi's mosaic-covered public park.

Park Guell is an extremely important UNESCO World Heritage Site. It holds profound cultural,  historical, artistic, and architectural value. Gaudi’s Park Guell has played a pivotal role in shaping architectural and building techniques at the turn of the 19th century in Barcelona. As an emblematic destination, Park Güell continues to captivate the hearts of thousands of visitors each year. Read more and visit this magnificent attraction for an unforgettable experience.

Things to know before booking your Park Guell tickets

  • Park Güell caps entries at 1,400 visitors per hour, so book your tickets in advance to avoid missing out.
  • There are multiple ticket options to choose from: general entry, skip-the-line guided tour, and audio guides in multiple languages. Choose one that suits your needs.
  • Opted for the audio guide? Nice pick! Just download it through the app in your preferred language. It works offline, so you can wander Gaudí’s world without hunting for Wi-Fi or burning through data. Oh, and here’s a handy user guide to make things a breeze.
  • Here’s a pro tip: most tourists completely miss the Gaudí House Museum—the actual home of the legend himself. But not every ticket includes access to it. If it’s on your must-see list (and it should be), make sure you grab a ticket that covers it.
  • Ready for more Gaudí magic? Barcelona is basically his architectural playground—and you’re invited. Grab a combo ticket to Sagrada Família, Casa Batlló, or La Pedrera. It’s the smartest way to soak up his masterpieces while saving time and money.
  • And hey, skip the expensive taxi rides. Grab a combo with the hop-on hop-off bus tour. It drops you off right near Park Güell and takes you around to all the city’s top sights. Convenient and budget-friendly? Yes, please.

The Serpentine Bench

It is a mosaic-tiled seating structure that winds along the terrace of Park Guell. Designed using Gaudí's innovative Trencandis technique, the bench showcases a serpentine form with a spectrum of vibrant tones from green to blue. It is crafted from discarded tiles sourced from a nearby factory!

El Drac

Meet 'El Drac,' the beautiful mosaic salamander at Park Guell, symbolizing Barcelona. Crafted from brick and made with Gaudi's distinctive Trecandis technique, this masterpiece stands at the park's entrance. Trecandis and serpentine shapes, recurring in Gaudi's work, find a captivating expression at Park Guell, don't miss them!

The Greek Theatre or Nature Square

The heart of Park Guell is a vast open space, originally envisioned by Gaudí as a Greek Theatre. Today, it's more commonly known as the Nature Square or Plaça de la Natura. One of the most striking features of the Nature Square is the undulating bench covered in vibrant mosaic tiles, designed by Josep Maria Jujol, a collaborator of Gaudi.

Porter's Lodge Pavilions

Flanking the main entrance of Park Guell on Carrer d'Olot are two pavilions known as Porter's Lodge. The left one once served as a concierge's office with a waiting room and phone booth, while the right, named Casa del Guarda, was the porter's house. Today, Casa del Guarda is part of the MUHBA (Barcelona History Museum).

The Hypostyle Hall

This grand hall with unique Doric columns showcases Gaudí's architectural brilliance. This remarkable space features 86 fluted columns, and where columns are absent, the design simulates three naves akin to a grand temple. The room's benches provide excellent vantage points for views of the entrance pavilion and the iconic dragon fountain.

The Gardens of Austria

Originally designated for urban plots, the area now known as Austria's Gardens in Park Guell transformed into a municipal nursery when the park became public. Named after Austria's tree donation during the "Vienna in Barcelona" exhibition in 1977, the garden offers panoramic views and has two houses in its center.

The Laundry Room Portico

Tucked away from the main tourist routes, the Laundry Room Portico offers a quieter and more intimate experience of Park Guell. Located on the eastern side of the Nature Square, the Laundry Room Portico has an original iron gate leading to Casa Larrard's former gardens. Set above the house, it winds through a pine grove with a portico resembling a wave on inclined columns—a prime example of Gaudi's cherished organic architecture.

The Roadways Pathways, and Viaducts

Designed by Antonio Gaudi, three five-meter-wide viaducts lead to the hill of the Three Crosses. A ten-meter-wide transversal road connects Carmel Road to the Sant Josep de la Muntanya exit. Gaudi also crafted three-meter-wide pedestrian paths featuring stairs and slopes, providing direct access to various plots.

Walk of the Palm Trees

Explore the Walk of the Palm Trees, Park Guell's broadest boulevard. This street, spanning 10 meters in width, links Carmel Road to the Sant Josep de la Muntanya exit, running along the expansive square from above. Gaudi's design also includes three-meter-wide pedestrian paths, offering shortcuts with stairs and slopes for direct access to various plots.

Plan your visit to Park Guell

Park Guell Tickets

Park Güell is split into two zones, each with its own charm, and both are totally worth exploring.

Monumental Zone: This is where the magic happens. This 12-hectare area is home to all the iconic Gaudí designs: the colorful mosaic lizard, the wavy bench with postcard views, and those twisty stone columns. It’s the heart of the park and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, no less!

Forest Zone: This lesser-known zone is the park’s quieter side. Spread across 8 hectares, it’s full of greenery, walking trails, and peaceful spots to relax. No mosaics here—just nature doing its thing.

The whole park is open to visitors, but since 2013, entry to the Monumental Zone has been regulated to avoid big crowds. So, you’ll need to book your ticket in advance to get in. Locals with a Neighbour’s Card or Gaudir Més pass can waltz in without a booking—lucky them!

  • Entry to the Monumental Zone is timed and limited to avoid overcrowding. Booking ahead of time is the only way to guarantee your preferred slot, especially on weekends or holidays.

  • There are no restaurants inside the Monumental Zone, and the café options are limited. Pack a water bottle and a light snack—especially in summer when the Barcelona sun means business.
