Lush, well-maintained gardens surround the Palau Reial—the royal family’s Barcelona residence during the early 20th century. The gardens boast multiple expansive lawns and impressive courtyards with fountains surrounded by bamboo, cypress and pine trees. Just behind the park, on the corner of Avinguda de Pedralbes, sits Finca Güell, one of Gaudí’s lesser-known but equally spectacular developments.
