February 25, 2014 - We only saw a portion of the Parc de la Ciutadella (City Park), it's a beautiful green space filled with paths, a few museums and a lot of people out enjoying the spring day. We walked from one end to Zoo Barcelona at the other end.
The zoo is the perfect size (about the size of ZooAtlanta) to explore in a couple of hours. The paths wind around and above some of the animal enclosures making for great viewing. There are seal and dolphin shows, reptile house and a wonderful variety of animals.
It's not cheap but it's a good value for entertainment and happy kids. Admission: adults 19.90 euros/$27.36 children (3-12) 11.95 euros/$16.43
