Very nice park. Interesting and packed with Gaudi’s creations. The ticket was very useful cause the park was sold out the day we went and many people were left out not able to visit.

Easy to get in and many entrances to the park. Would definitely go earlier/pick earlier time slot as the park gets very busy as the day goes on. Definitely recommended.
