The Basilica de la Sagrada Familia is a church devoted to the Holy Family.

Take a lift to the top of the towers for a panoramic view of the city and marvel at the ornate architecture. The nativity facade and crypt have also been awarded UNESCO World Heritage Status.

4.5Joan Miro Foundation(4.012 reviews) - not to miss Thursday: 10:00 AM - 8:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Speciality Museums • Architectural Buildings • Art Museums
The Fundació Joan Miró was created by Miró himself, at first principally with works from his own private collection, with a desire to set up an internationally recognised centre in Barcelona for Miró scholarship and contemporary art research, and to disseminate the collection. The Fundació opened to the public on 10 June 1975 and has since become a dynamic centre in which Joan Miró's work coexists with cutting-edge contemporary art. The Fundació is located in a building designed by Josep Lluís Sert, making it one of the few museums anywhere in the world in which the complicity between artist and architect underpins the dialogue between the works and the space that houses them. The Fundació offers an overview of the landscapes of Joan Miró's art and life, creating an enriching dialogue with other artists from the 20th and 21st centuries.See more..
4.5Anfiteatro(2.644 reviews) - Spectacular situation between land and sea Spent 1-2 hours Historic Sites • Architectural Buildings
I can see why this is the most visited site in Tarragona. Interesting ruins and a good audio guide. There is something special about the situation so close to the sea. Ask about a ‘combination’ ticket if you are visiting other historical sites in Tarragona. I only found out about this later as it was not mentioned by the staff. A new access is being constructed which looks as if it will give a spectacular approach to the amphitheater. A good way to get a bird’s eye view of the site is to visit the rooftop bar of the nearby Imperial Tarraco hotel.See more..
