Since its opening in the mid-19th century, Ciutadella Park has remained one of the most popular green areas in the city. The sprawling park covers 280,000 sq m (70 acres), with a manmade lake, a zoo, sporting areas, the Parliament of Catalonia building, museums, and Josep Fontserè's iconic fountain. Travel down the garden paths that ribbon through the foliage, or stay on the pathways where you'll see performers practicing on a tightrope, juggling, or playing music. Small signs at the base of the trees and plants label the park's different types of vegetation.

Worth a visit. The park is a lovely way to spend a couple of hours or to have a picnic. Lovely gardens, great for families and children.

A really nice park located centrally in Barcelona, with a boating pond, beautiful fountain, plenty of paths to stroll and benches to rest on. Can be quite crowded but is a gorgeous place to visit.

Wonderful park free of charge. Beautiful monuments and picturesque buildings. Worth coming here for a calm walk. Dogs are not allowed unfortunately. Also a good spot for making photos. Many locals spend time here as well. The park is surrounded by many cafes so you can easy after find a place to sit and have a small snack.

Such a pretty and relaxing park. The fountain is stunning. It's nice to take a little stroll through it and enjoy some quality time. In the morning or the evening it's perfect to workout here. You'll see a lot of people doing yoga, going running or just enjoying a picnic
