Camp Nou Stadium; join the Camp Nou Experience

The Camp Nou stadium is the largest football stadium in the world. Other big football stadiums such as those in Mexico City have been reduced in capacity. The Camp Nou of Barcelona currently has a capacity of 99,354 seats and this will be expanded to 105,000 seats. Because of the passion for football that is shared by almost all Catalans, the entire stadium is sold out almost every game. You can visit this stadium very well and get nice tours. You will find all the information you need for this below.

Camp Nou Experience

Learn more about the amazing story of a football team that represents a city, a region and even the Catalan language and with that also the identity of the Catalans. With the ticket for the Camp Nou Experience you can visit the impressive Camp Nou stadium, the impressive museum and the Multimedia Zone where you can experience the most beautiful moments of FC Barcelona. Normal tickets that are time-related for adults (14+ years old) cost €25 and open tickets (not time-bound) for adults cost €28. During the tour you can use an audio guide that tells you everything about Camp Nou and the museum. This allows you to view and admire everything at your own pace. The audio guide is available in Catalan, Spanish, English, French, Italian, German and in Dutch. You can order the audioguide at the stadium for €5.

Visiting Camp Nou on matchdays

On competition days and the Copa Del Rey, the tour is closed all day. On these days you can only visit the museum (including the cup room, history, Messi room and sports goblets) plus a panoramic view in the stadium until 3 hours before the kick-off. On match days of the Champions League, the day before the match and the match day itself, only the museum can be visited plus a panoramic view in the stadium until 3 pm. More information about opening times, tickets, prices etc can be found on the official website of FC Barcelona.

Parking and public transport to  Camp Nou

On non-competition days you can park your car free of charge in the Camp Nou car park with street name Carrer d’Arístides Maillol. While visiting the Camp Nou tour on match days the Camp Nou car park is accessible up to 4 hours before the match. The opening hours of the parking lot are equal to the opening hours of the Camp Nou Tour.

Getting to the Camp Nou stadium by public transport is also very easy. There are different bus stops and metro stations near the stadium. If you travel by metro you can go with line 3 (get off at Maria Cristina or Les Corts) or line 5 (get off at Collblanc or Badal).

If you travel by bus, you also have a large number of options, lines 7, 15, 43, 67, 68, 74, 75, L12, L50, L60, L62 and N12. The N12 is the night bus that comes close to Camp Nou. Night bus (N12) to and from the city center: bus stop at Diagonal-Av Joan XXIII. Walk via Avinguda de Joan XXIII to the large roundabout. Keep in mind that after a soccer game that ends at night, about 100,000 people leave from Camp Nou, it can be very busy at the bus and you will probably have to wait longer because you can’t always take the first bus.

Besides the regular buses, there is also the well-known hop on hop off bus. This bus that takes tourists around the city has several stops. The ‘blue’ route has a stop at the Camp Nou stadium.

Works of Gaudi

The works of Gaudi consist of 7 buildings that are on the UNESCO World Heritage List. 6 of these structures can be found in Barcelona and one in Santa Coloma de Cervelló. Since 1984 the works of Gaudi have already been on the World Heritage List. UNESCO honors Gaudi for its creative contribution to the development of the architecture of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The monuments have a personal style and symbolize Catalan modernism, a cultural and artistic movement. The next 7 (plus a bonus) works by Gaudi are definitely worth a visit.

Sagrada Familia

To start with the best known, the Sagrada Familia (Holy Family) is a great basilica and is seen as the absolute masterpiece of Gaudi and also the most important characteristic of Barcelona. The church has a length of 90 meters and an unfinished tower of 172.5 meters. The construction of the Sagrada Familia started in 1882 and according to the latest plans the church should be finished in 2026.

The Sagrada Familia is the most visited monument in Spain with about three million visitors a year! Tickets can be ordered in advance on the website, this way you avoid having to wait in line for a long time.

Casa Battlo

The Casa Battlo was built between 1904 and 1906 and again has an architecture based on inspiration from nature. The wavy shape of the facade are inspired by the waves of the Mediterranean Sea or on the winding forms of the mountains of Monsterrat. The roof has the shape of a dragon and is partly covered with ceramics, these are the scales of the dragon. The dragon symbolizes the dragon of Saint George. The cross on the roof is the lance of St. George, the wrought-iron balconies are skulls and the gallery on the first floor is the mouth of the dragon. The legendary dragon slayer St. Joris or Sant Jordi is the patron saint of the Spanish region of Catalonia.

Palacio Güell

The Palacio Güell or Palau Güell is a large mansion with a fairytale garden on the roof.

Park Güell

Park Güell or Parque Güell is a large city park in the Gracia district on the southern slope of Monte Carmelo in north-eastern Barcelona. You’ve probably seen this pictures of this place before. The architecture of the Park Güell is inspired by nature. Since 1926 it’s a public park. The Park Güell has an area of 17.18 hectares and has undulating shapes similar to rivers. It’s also covered in mosaic. The Dragonstairs is built around a fountain in the shape of a salamander. A terrace with a bank of over 100 meters in the shape of a snake is the central point of the park. The main road in the park is called the Rosary and there are many viaducts. The museum in the park has actually been Gaudi’s residence for a short time.

The Crypt of the Colonia Güell

The Crypt of the Colonia Güell is located in the Colonia Güell district in the village of Santa Coloma de Cervello. It’s the crypt of a church that has never been built. The crypt has a separate construction and colored stained-glass windows that symbolize the transformation of a butterfly as a resurrection from the dead.

Casa Vicens

Vasa Vicens is seen as the first major work of Gaudi (built between 1883 and 1885). The large and elegant house has an impressive façade. It was sold in 2014 and will be opened to the public after renovation.

Casa Mila (La Pedrera)

The Casa Mila is an apartment complex with undulating outside walls. Because of the irregular façade, the building is nicknamed La Pedrera (the quarry). The building has an area of 1323 square meters. On the roof there are 28 turned chimneys that give natural ventilation. On the sixth floor there is an apartment with furniture from the 1920s and in the attic there is a permanent exhibition.

Catedral La Seu (Palma de Mallorca)

One that is often not mentioned in the works of Gaudi is the Cathedral at Mallorca in Palma. It’s not a complete design by Gaudi, but he certainly has contributed and this is why we find it worth mentioning. In the beginning of the 20th century Antoni Gaudí led the renovation of the altar room of La Seu. Among other things, he left a gigantic chandelier hanging over the altar, and the ceramic walls were also introduced by him. Gaudi installed the canopy as well. The canopy is made of wrought iron and is illuminated by many lights.

As you have seen above, the works of Gaudi are quite impressive and certainly worth a visit. Since almost all of these works are located in Barcelona, a city trip to this wonderful city should definitely be a good idea, right? Do you want to discover Barcelona low-budget?

What makes this man so popular?

Antoni Gaudí was born on the 25^th of June 1852 in Reus, close to Barcelona. He joined the School of Architecture and combined this together with working as an assistant in several places like an architectural practice and the workshop of a carpenter and a glassmaker.

After he graduated he received his first commission. His reputation grew and he got projects commissioned by the bourgeoisie like Casa Batlló, Casa Milà and Casa Calvet. All these structures you will find in Barcelona.

Park Güell, Palau Güell, Casa Vicens and Teresian college are also designed by Gaudí.

In 1883 he also took over the design of the impressive Sagrada Familia. For a long period, he combined this with other projects, but in 1914 he decided to focus only on the Basilica. The final months he even lived close by his studio.

On the 10^th of June 1926, he died of his injuries due to a tragic tram accident three days earlier. He was buried in the crypt of the Sagrada Familia.

The first tower was finished in 1925. This was the only tower he saw completed. These days the Basilica is ready for 70 percent. In 2020 the six main towers will be finished and the goal is to complete the Basilica in 2026. Watch this movie to see what it will look like.

Experience el clásico, the most important football match in Spain

Just before the preparations for Christmas were about to start last year, a special event took place in Spain: El Clásico. In other words, the clash between eternal rivals FC Barcelona and Real Madrid. On Saturday December 3 the Camp Nou stadium was the theatre for this special match, which always ensures spectacle and nice goals. If you’re lucky and you are in Spain during the match, you can experience el clásico, and see how the Spaniards experience this match in their own way.

Although it was financially almost impossible to actual go to Barcelona and buy tickets, it was in Valencia a nice experience as well. The week before the match the shops will sell a lot of merchandise. It is difficult to estimate which of the two teams has the most support in this city.

When you don’t know where to watch El Clásico on match day itself, ask around. Many people from Valencia tell you that every random bar with a television screen would broadcast Barca-Real. And no Irish Pub of course, but rather a typical Spanish bar where the delicious jamones hang above you on the ceiling and the dobles stand next to you on the counter. A little bet with your friends and the game can begin!

It is better not make it that late the evening before. To get a good place to sit and watch the game in a bar you have to be on time. But do not expect that you can follow the football every single second. Bars will be filled with people and besides that Spaniards are known to be quite passionate during these kind of games.

Because FC Barcelona and Real Madrid are very big, in Valencia as well live a lot of supporters of both clubs. That’s why it is so special to witness that (youthful) fans can watch the match together. You can’t imagine that when for example Manchester United and Liverpool face each other. Nevertheless, one can see that more people cheer for the Catalans than the Madrilènes. This manifests itself in jubilation after the 1-0 scored by Suarez just after halftime. Moreover, it is advisable to go on the streets during halftime. You will notice that it is very quiet there and that’s how much the confrontation lives in the city! Eventually the rivalry is not too bad when Ramos scores the 1-1 just before the end of the game.  The people drink a beer together and cheers on the result.

Altogether it’s special to perceive how El Clásico is experienced in this country that is crazy for the football game.
