Jardi Botànic
Barcelona’s Botanic Gardens, set on gentle slopes overlooking the city and the sea, were created in 1930 and continue to evolve. They now provide a beautifully landscaped showcase for Mediterranean-climate plants from around the world, including Africa, Australia, California, the Canary Islands, and Chile. Some 70 planting zones are connected by walking paths, many of them crossing small bridges and ponds. If you’re also planning to visit the Museu de Ciènces Naturals (on the opposite side of the city), you’ll save money by buying a combined admission. You can stroll through the impressive cactus gardens of the Jardins de Mossèn Costa i Llobera nearby for free, with views of the port below.
