Joan Miró's works can be difficult to appreciate, but it's worth the extra effort and time. Renting the audio guide at the Fundación Joan Miró gives some perspective of the artist's messages, and makes the museum experience more enjoyable. The museum encompasses the works of Miró, displays a small collection of works by other artists paying tribute to Miró, and also has one or two temporary exhibits. The museum is located very close to the Montjuic Funicular stop. read more about Fundació Joan Miró

Barri de La Barceloneta

• Port Vell
• tel:+34 93 285 3834 (tourist information)
• Visit website
• Barcelona, 08003

What used to be one of the dodgiest neighbourds in Barcelona, is now thriving with tourists, locals and all those who appreciate living by the sea. Barceloneta is a diamond in the rough as it posseses both that genuine barrio feel, while at the same time its home to some of the most delicious and well known touristy restaurants in the city. Visit the many seaside patios and chiringuitos for the must try Spanish paella and daytime sangria before hitting up the beach. A perfect place for Sunday strolls with the family, bike rides, surfing and kite surfing or ideal for just working on the tan, Barceloneta is never dull, especially between the months from May-September. The best time to make a beach appearance is in the morning, as it doesn't usually fill up until 1 pm when it often overflows with people. Barceloneta is also home to the Maritime Museum, the casino, as well as some of the most popular (and cheesy) night clubs the city has to offer. There's also a great little plaza across from the market equipped with ping pong tables and a small park for the kids. read more about Barri de La Barceloneta

Magic Fountain

• avinguda de la Reina Maria Cristina
• Visit website
• Barcelona, 08004

After a long day of museums, let loose at the magic Fonts. Feel like a kid again with the excitement of the colorful fountain show set from the Plaça de Espanya to the MNAC museum. Imagining the fountains' plumbing system below is mind boggling, not to mention counting the over four thousand light fixtures used to create the magic. While the light, water, and music show is flowing, the Art Deco flair of the 1929 fountains is often overlooked. The magic is choreographed to varied musical medleys, and is not to be missed on a warm summer night. Winter shows are on Friday and Saturday nights, and spring and summer shows are from Thursday to Sunday. read more about Magic Fountain
