[2025 Barcelona Attraction] Travel Guide for Recinte Modernista de Sant Pau (Updated Jul)

Day 0: Arrive in Barcelona on an evening flight Day 1: Sagrada Familia → Park Guell → Watch Barcelona FC I walked from Sagrada Familia to Park Guell, but I don't recommend it. It's a steep hill all the way. It's worth going to a Barcelona FC game. Day 2: Arc de Triomf → Palau de la Musica Catalana → Barcelona Cathedral → Boqueria Market → Placa Catalunya → Casa Batllo → Casa Mila Day 3: Sagrada Familia (2nd time) → Sant Pau Hospital → Next city

#2024TravelReview Representative buildings of the Catalan modernist style in Spain are #Palais de la Música Catalana and #Hospital de Sant Pau. Both were designed by Barcelona's master architect Dominic and are just as popular as Gaudi's buildings. St. Cross and Paul Hospital is not a single building, but consists of 27 buildings. It is very large, with brick red with a hint of orange, exuding a strong modernist style. Red bricks, mosaics, stained glass, statues, spires and domes, every corner is quite gorgeous and full of art and humanities. It is hard to imagine that this is a hospital! You need to buy a ticket to enter the building, which costs €17 for adults, which is not very cheap. Currently, only four buildings are open to the public: the administrative building, the St. Raphael Pavilion, the operating room, etc., but it is still quite worth seeing, and there is also a beautiful atrium garden for relaxation. #SpainTravel #Hospital de Sant Pau #Palais de la Música Catalana #Barcelona #ArchitectureTour #Catalonia

It's close to Sagrada Familia "Sant Pau Hospital" is actually a hospital that was in use until 2009 ✨The tiles and decorations are beautiful😊 It was empty, so I thought it was a hidden tourist spot in Barcelona^ ^ It's spacious, so I walk a lot👟 #WorldHeritage #Spain #Barcelona

This is a place called Sant Pau in Barcelona! This place used to be a hospital, but now it is used as a museum and medical school lectures are also held there! The admission fee is 14 euros, and students can enter for 10.5 euros~! When traveling in Europe, many places offer student discounts until the age of 25, which is a good thing🥰 I liked the exterior of the building more than the exhibition halls inside the museumㅋㅋㅋ The weather was nice, so I walked around and looked around for a whileㅎㅎ It's not far from Sagrada Familia, so I recommend stopping by! #Spain travel #Barcelona travel #solo travel #Sant Pau hospital #museum tour #at the museum #Travel guidebook#Beginner photographer#2019 travel#Year-end travel#Outing#Museums these days

St. Paul's Hospital is not far from the Sagrada Famlia. It takes only a few minutes to walk. The original site is an 11th-century pilgrim hospital. It is now called the modernist building complex with a strong Islamic style and is known as in the city. City, "the most beautiful hospital in the world." is still a world cultural heritage, and the pink powder, the girl is full of heart! Address: Sant Antoni Maria Claret

Barcelona, a city of artists, is a must-visit destination for travelers, especially for those eager to explore Antoni Gaudí's iconic works such as the Sagrada Família, Park Güell, Casa Batlló, and Casa Milà. If your time in Barcelona is limited, you might be tempted to visit all these landmarks in a single day. While this approach allows you to immerse yourself in Gaudí's artistic world, it may also lead to aesthetic fatigue, making it harder to appreciate the fresh and profound emotions Gaudí poured into each creation. After visiting Barcelona, I have a unique itinerary suggestion: 🗓️ Itinerary: Sagrada Família Gaudí Avenue pedestrian walkway (approximately 2 kilometers) Sant Pau Hospital 💞 Why I recommend this: Book the earliest entry ticket for the Sagrada Família (8:30 AM entry, 9:00 AM guided tour). While the afternoon sunlight might make the stained glass windows shine most brilliantly, avoiding the crowds is the best strategy. At 8:30 AM, before any guided tours begin, you can enjoy half an hour of serene beauty inside the basilica, basking in the morning light. This tranquil experience is truly priceless! At 9:00 AM, the guided tours commence, offering a deeper understanding of the architectural design of the Sagrada Família. Although there are tours in various languages, they all use headphones, ensuring the interior remains relatively quiet. I strongly recommend opting for the official guided service and choosing the language that suits you best. After exploring the Sagrada Família, the park opposite the basilica is the perfect spot for photos. Once you've captured your memories, take a leisurely stroll along the pedestrian-only Gaudí Avenue to Sant Pau Hospital. This boulevard directly connects these two architectural marvels—the church and the hospital—which were among the first landmarks planned during Barcelona's urban expansion to serve the growing population. Gaudí Avenue is lined with restaurants, cafés, and souvenir shops, making the two-kilometer walk a delightful experience. I highly recommend sitting outdoors at one of the cafés to enjoy a cup of Spanish coffee or a cocktail, soaking in the unique tourist atmosphere of Barcelona. Barcelona is a pedestrian-friendly city. The wide pedestrian paths connecting the church and the hospital are now bustling with restaurants and shops. In this city, it's common to find pedestrian walkways wider than the roads. As the morning crowd gathers around the Sagrada Família and its viewing platforms, you can escape the hustle and bustle and enjoy a leisurely walk. After lunch, I suggest visiting Sant Pau Hospital. Facing the Sagrada Família along a straight road is Barcelona's Sant Pau Hospital. Both the Sagrada Família and Sant Pau Hospital were part of the initial urban planning during Barcelona's expansion from the old city. These landmarks served as the backbone of the new district, surrounded by octagonal residential blocks that formed an orderly city layout. Initially, I wondered why a hospital would become a tourist attraction. But upon seeing the building, I was struck by its beauty: why would a hospital be designed so magnificently? The entrance to Sant Pau Hospital often has a fair number of tourists, but not many venture inside after taking photos. This former public hospital, which once served the grassroots population, is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. While the entrance offers a glimpse of Catalan architectural beauty, it’s hard to imagine the vast campus within. Until 2009, Sant Pau Hospital was a fully operational medical facility with over 20 interconnected buildings linked by underground tunnels. After a new hospital was built nearby, the site underwent five to six years of renovation and reopened as a museum in 2014. Unlike Gaudí's Sagrada Família, Sant Pau Hospital showcases a completely different style. With expansive outdoor spaces, fewer crowds, and exquisite Catalan art, it’s a photographer’s paradise. It’s astonishing to think that over a century ago, the renowned architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner envisioned such a stunning design for a hospital. In just one day, you can experience two distinct artistic styles, enjoy Barcelona’s pedestrian-friendly streets, savor aromatic coffee, indulge in delicious Spanish paella, and pair it with a fine wine—my ideal itinerary for a leisurely city tour!

The transportation is very convenient. You can go up the mountain and down the sea in one day. The amusement park Tibidabo is definitely a good place to check in from afar, with a view of the Sagrada Familia and even the seaside. Then explore the Gote architecture. The most inconspicuous St. Paul's Hospital turned out to be a different world🤯 5 days and 4 nights of fun

#EuropeExploration Day 1: Arrived in Barcelona in the afternoon, Lunch at Santa Catalina Market Palazzo de la Musica Catalana (30 mins) Park Güell (1.5 hrs) Casa Vicens (exterior only) Casa Mila (exterior only) Casa Batllo (exterior only) Dinner Shopping at El Corte department store Day 2: Palau Güell (exterior only) Sagrada Familia (2 hrs) Sant Pau Hospital (1 hr) Flamenco Dinner Day 3: Returning home [Hotel we stayed at] Hotel Ciutadella Barcelona Good location, clean and stylish rooms◎ [Other points] •We didn't use taxis to get around, but used the Ola Card, which allows unlimited use of the subway and buses •It was a pretty tight schedule, so I wish we had more time!

Barcelona! Just the name conjures up images of vibrant streets, stunning architecture, and the tantalizing aroma of tapas drifting on a warm breeze. As a tourist, stepping into Barcelona feels like entering a living, breathing work of art, infused with a contagious energy. Gaudí's whimsical masterpieces are, of course, a major draw. Park Güell's fairytale structures and the still-under-construction Sagrada Família with its soaring, organic spires leave you utterly spellbound. Wandering through the Gothic Quarter's labyrinthine alleyways feels like stepping back in time, each ancient stone whispering stories of centuries past.

📍Address: Saint-Croix-Saint-Paul Hospital 💞Recommended reasons: 1.Super film output! Pink + great lighting 2. It only takes 15 to 20 minutes to walk to Sagrada Familia 3. You can easily take photos of the Sagrada Familia without being squeezed like sardines You can arrange lunch at the Hospital of the Holy Cross and Saint Paul and the Sagrada Familia (better light in the afternoon) I recommend a restaurant called "Jilin Fresh Home Cooking" next door, it's super delicious! There are only a few seats in the store, and the food is cooked to order, so you need to wait a little. But the taste is really good! If you are tired of Western food, you can try this~ #SpainTravel #BarcelonaAttractions #SagradaFamily #Hospital de Sant Pau #SpainItinerary

But the outside is free, so be sure to stop by and take a look! It's not too far from Sagrada Familia! I like Sant Pau Hospital! #New YorkFlightEvent #NovemberTravelSupportEvent #EuropeTravel #Barcelona

The pink and pale colored mosaics and stained glass are impressive, making it hard to believe it's a hospital, and the luxurious and beautiful interior is so beautiful💕 There are also rooms where you can see what it was like when it was actually used as a hospital, so don't miss it🫶🏽 If you buy the Palau de Música Catalana, said to be Montaner's masterpiece, and the Sant Pau Hospital as a set, you can get a good deal by purchasing a set ticket online, so I recommend it👆🏽✨　 【Hospital de Sant Pau】 Address: C/ de St. Antoni Maria Claret, 167, Horta-Guinardó, 08025 Barcelona Opening hours: 9:30-18:30 #Europe travel #Spain #Spain travel #Barcelona #Barcelona sightseeing #Gaudi #Sant Pau Hospital #Montaner #World Heritage Site #Antoni Gaudi #Gaudi #gaudí #Barcelona trip #trip overseas travel

#August Travel Support Event Sant Pau Hospital that I visited during my trip to Barcelona! It was so magnificent and gorgeous inside that it was called the most beautiful hospital in the world. It was a place that I was even more interested in because it was built by an architect other than Gaudi in Spain. Inside, the artworks were displayed in glass cases, and it was so pretty and edgy that I couldn't believe it was a hospital. It felt amazing!

The Hospital of the Holy Cross and Saint Paul was expanded with donations from the wealthy Barcelona banker Pau Gil, built between 1901-1930. The original site was a pilgrim's hospital from the 11th century, which was transformed into the 'Hospital of the Holy Cross' in 1401, following the merger of six medieval hospitals, and has always been known as 'the palace of the poor'. Until June 2009, it was continuously used as a hospital, after which it was converted into a museum and cultural center. The work of the Catalan modernist architects Lluís Domènech i Montaner (the master of modernist architecture and teacher of Gaudí) and his son, it was included in the World Heritage List in 1997. The hospital's main hall faces the entrance, with marble columns supporting a continuous dome, and the gentle pink color is a delightful surprise. Not just the hall, many rooms have ceilings decorated with warm, vivid, and rich Moorish-style decorations, which can somewhat distract patients and alleviate their anxious emotions. -
