Presided over by the Baroque Church from which it gets its name, it was here that parishioner Antoni Gaud\u00ed was traveling to on July 7<sup>th<\/sup>, 1926. But before he could arrive, he was hit by a tram and succumbed to his injuries three days later. In January 1938, in the dark days of the Spanish Civil War, 42 children were killed when one of Mussolini\u2019s bombs dropped on the church\u2019s underground shelter. Even today, the pockmarked walls bear witness to one of the first ever civilian bombing raids.<\/p>\n<p>Nowadays, the peacefulness of the square is broken only by the sound of the church school\u2019s children as they play. Also in the square is the tiny one-room Museu de Cal\u00e7at (Shoe Museum) and a caf\u00e9 where scenes from Woody Allen\u2019s <em>Vicky Cristina Barcelona<\/em> were shot. The fountain in the center of the square was also the location for the music video of <em>My Immortal<\/em> by rock band Evanescence.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"\/spain\" data-wpil=\"url\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17651\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/spain-trip.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a>Parc del Labyrint d\u2019Horta<\/h2>\n<p>Located in the suburban district of Horta-Guinard\u00f3, Horta Labyrinth Park doesn\u2019t receive all that many tourists. But I often take family and friends here when they need a respite from the bustling and crowded city center. Aside from the getting lost in the maze, visitors can also see the former palace of the noble Desvalls family, which incorporates a medieval watchtower and played host to the Kings and Queens of Spain on three occasions.<\/p>\n<p>There is also a neoclassical and romantic garden, which features two Italian-style pavilions and a large pond. They were the filming location for the 2006 movie <em>Perfume: The Story of a Murderer<\/em>. There is also a large Mediterranean forest that surrounds the more cultivated park.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_27415\" style=\"width: 970px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-27415\" class=\"size-full wp-image-27415\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Horta-Labyrinth.jpg\" alt=\"fun things to do in Barcelona\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Horta-Labyrinth.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Horta-Labyrinth-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Horta-Labyrinth-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Horta-Labyrinth-585x439.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-27415\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Horta Labyrinth<\/p><\/div>\n<h2>Palau de Musica Catalana<\/h2>\n<p>While this UNESCO word heritage site can hardly be called a hidden gem, this phenomenal building is dwarfed by the fame of La Sagrada Fam\u00edlia and other works of Gaud\u00ed. This is a real shame because this stunning venue can hold its head up high against some of the very best architecture the world has to offer. Built between 1905 and 1908 as a home for the <em>Orfe\u00f3 Catal\u00e0<\/em> choral society, the building is one of the world\u2019s finest examples of Catalan Art Nouvea.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps its most impressive feature is the gigantic stained glass window that fills the auditorium with natural light during a performance. Guided tours are available in English, but if you buy a ticket to see a concert, you can visit for free!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"\/adventures\/best-restaurants-barcelona\/\"><strong>READ MORE: 10 RESTAURANTS YOU CAN&#8217;T LEAVE BARCELONA WITHOUT TRYING<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>The Bunkers of Carmel<\/h2>\n<p>Covered with sprawling apartment blocks built for working class immigrants, the Carmel neighbourhood is another one that does not see many tourists. But it does have one thing going for it: the best view in Barcelona. Anyone energetic enough to climb the 257 meters to the top (or smart enough to get a taxi) will be rewarded with one of the greatest city views anywhere in Europe, if not the world.<\/p>\n<p>The hill on which the bunkers stand, <em>Tur\u00f3 de la Rovira<\/em>, also has an interesting history as it functioned as a Republican anti-aircraft battery during the Spanish Civil War. In the years that followed, it became a shantytown known as <em>Els Canons<\/em> (The Cannons).

Getgood"},"description":"Born in South London, James Getgood spent most of his childhood with his nose in a book, imagining himself on a great adventure. After university, he spent 14 years working as an English language teacher, where he worked in the ramshackle favelas of Brazil, the towering skyscrapers of Seoul and the windswept deserts of Saudi Arabia. He now works as a freelance travel writer in Barcelona.","url":"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/author\/james-getgood\/"}]}},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Intrepid-Travel-spain_barcelona_busy-alley.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p4OQMK-788","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27412","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15911"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27412"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27412\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":82381,"href":"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27412\/revisions\/82381"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27418"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27412"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27412"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27412"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
