Continue your architectural foray by visiting the Passeig de Gràcia, a street in the Eixample District, and enjoy Gaudi’s modernisme masterpiece Casa Batlló, a building where wood, glass, ceramics and quarried stone mix to produce stunning lights, colors and shapes. Then, make your way to La Pedrera, a residential building designed by Gaudi in the early 1900s that resembles a stone quarry.

Midday

• Modern Masterpieces. After lunch, stroll in the Quadrat d’Or, the central area of Eixample. You’ll see countless examples of Barcelona’s modernisme style from the late 19th and early 20th centuries — buildings featuring floral decorations, neo-Gothic details and stained glass.
