To get an idea of where Picasso began as an artist, the museum is great. Many people will probably be a bit disappointed of the lack of his major works, but it makes for an interesting insight in the birth of one of the greatest modern artists.

If you're taking in the MACBA, stopping by the CCCB is an equally valid proposition and right next door. They also have a great museum shop with loads of art books, many in languages other than Spanish.

Grab a book or your iPod and some food and make a picnic under a tree in its cool shade. If you’re feeling romantic, try renting a rowing boat on the central lake, and ask that special person to marry you. There’s an open WiFi network, but it’s stronger in some places than others, try getting as close as possible to the “W” signs.

Even if only to appreciate the architecture, MACBA is another Barcelona must. Also, the side streets around can be extremely rewarding, as they house a number of smaller shops and pubs, catering to the art crowd.

Fun fair aside, there's a lovely little, and little used, church at the top - visible from the whole city. The way up there has a bit of history to it too: the railway connecting Tibidabo to the city is the oldest in Spain, and the stations are gorgeous. A historic tram connects to the last leg, the funicular taking you all the way to the top.

The ever-changing exhibits are, if not always, then at least interesting, and the crafts section is great place to find a different kind of souvenir for the people back home. Keep on eye on the website for special events.

There are some spectacular views to be had over the city. The Fundacio Joan Miro overrun, but well worth the wait for the amazing collection as well as the stunning building and garden. The Poble Espanyol tries for the "living history"-fad, and actually also has decent eateries and nightlife.

The location is stunning - first through the museum and out back to the terrace. Also, the exhibits are great, and though Miro is famous, this is a great place to gain appreciation for his artistic development, as they feature both early and later works.
