Park Guell Entrances | How To Enter Park Guell?

Designed by Antoni Gaudí, Park Guell was originally planned as a housing development for aristocrats. However, only two show houses were completed and the project was abandoned. Gaudi continued to develop the space as a park and eventually, in 1926, the space was opened to the public. Over the years, Park Guell has grown to be a major tourist attraction.
