One of the largest squares in Barcelona. It was inaugurated in 1929 when the city hosted the International Exposition. Almost every thing in the square is related to that event. On one side there are the Venetian Towers where the main gate to the grounds of the expostion was located. On the other side there is the bullfighting arena that was turned into a shopping mall. Right after the towers, Queen Cristina Ave. Leads to the Majic Fountain and The National Palace for Arts, Barcelona's finest museum. Also nearby is Mies van der Rohe famous German pavillion built for the exposition. Three metro lines stop at the plaza and many bus lines.
Beautiful views, easy access via the metro and if you are exhausted from climbing stairs they even have escalators going up and down. Its a popular spot so expect it to be crowded from early till late. In the evenings they have a fantastic water and light show at the big fountain. We didn't go inside the palace but there was plenty to see out and around it.
We came just after the day of La Diada, the Catalunya indepence day, and the whole place was so trashed. Haha. However, it was beautiful. The view is unique. And also the Arenas Mall nearby has a great view of the Plaça d'Espanya too. I recommend you get up to the both places to see the views from up there. It is a beautiful central city view.
I fell in love with this square from the first glance. It is very pleasant place to be from the esthetic point of view. Any direction you turn your head to, you see something interesting and attractive and you can't just stop taking photos of the things you look at.
This square and the surrounding space are very beautiful both during the day and in the night light, especially the fountains that are located along the street and end up in a magical fountain! I recommend that you do not miss this place when visiting Barcelona.
We turned up via metro right into the middle of a concert. Very busy. Fountains came on at 9pm and was worth the squeeze. Had been warned of pickpockets but saw no signs of any. Had a great meal just off the central square.
Beautiful central plaza that initiates access to the magical fountain. Easily reached by Meteo, there is a large shopping center next to the square from which you can enjoy a fantastic view.
I can say that I am in love with this place. it’s a very beautiful place to be specially during the summer nights, you will literally, just can’t stop taking photos.
Nice lively area. Unfortunately the fountain is off during the colder months. But it's a great place to walk around.
Amazing plaza. Beautiful buildings and statues. Plenty of places to grab a bite or to grab a metro or rent a bike.
