Bunkers del Carmel
If you’re looking for one of the best views in Barcelona, visit Bunkers del Carmel. It’s a park offering a 360 degrees view of Barcelona, and it’s located just a short metro ride from the city center.
Hop off at the metro station El Carmel or Alfons X. Then you can either walk up or take a bus to the park.

Sagrada Familia
Sagrada Familia is one of the world’s most famous cathedrals. It’s famous for its beautiful and unique architecture designed by Gaudi – but also for taking such a long time to be completed.
This is probably the most popular photo spot in Barcelona – from the inside and out.

Casa Batllò
Casa Battlò is one of the most famous photo spots in Barcelona due to its beautiful architecture designed by Gaudi.
Make sure to see it from the inside, as well as from the other side of the street – then you’ll be able to fit the whole building in your shot.
NOTE: Go early in the morning if you want a shot without all the cars. During the day, this place can be quite busy – so either go early or be patient and wait out the cars and people!

Barcelona Cathedral
Barcelona Cathedral is a beautiful church with its gothic architecture.
Since the more famous church Sagrada Familia is located just around the corner, this church often goes unnoticed – which is such a shame, since it’s a very beautiful church!
Don’t forget to visit the rooftop of the Barcelona Cathedral, from up there you can snap some really cool photos.

Palau de la MĂşsica Catalana
Palau de la Música Catalana is a famous concert hall that’s today a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It’s famous for its beautiful colorful interior, and detailed decorations.
When there are no performances at Palau de la MĂşsica Catalana it’s possible to go and visit it – which I highly recommend you to do!
Just make sure to bring your camera, since this is one of the best photo spots in Barcelona!

Passeig de Sant Joan, Arc de Triomf
Everyone knows about the Arc de Triomf in Paris, but did you know that Barcelona has one too? – that’s even more beautiful in my opinion!
The Arc de Triomf in Barcelona is so cool with its red brick and beautiful details. It’s a must to visit and photograph when you’re in the city!

Tibidabo Mountain – Outside Barcelona
If you have time to spend a day a little bit outside Barcelona, I can highly recommend you to visit the Tibidabo Mountain.
Everywhere you go in Barcelona, you’ll see the Tibidabo Mountain with its big majestic church and 100 years old amusement park next to it.
This place offers some of the best views of Barcelona, as well as plenty of photo opportunities.
