About this photo

There's plenty to do in the Eixample district in Barcelona. A session of retail therapy in the modernista setting of the Eixample is recommended for all the family. Those who don’t wish to shop can visit a Gaudí building, like La Pedrera or Casa Batlló, or just wander around the area to admire a wealth of decorative details, from stained glass to ceramics, by his contemporaries.
