Have you decided what to see in Barcelona? Plaça de les Glòries Catalanes will be a good choice if you travel with kids

Mar 3, 2015
Today I run a new project: Discover Barcelona. The main idea of this project is to show to my dear readers the prettiest places of Barcelona and not from the tourist view, but from the view of a mum with a toddler.  For those who want just to come to visit Barcelona for a weekend, I will do later a post with the most touristy places, just shout when you need this post. But for now, I want to share with you some places that not all of the tourists have time to visit.

Today I will speak about Plaça de les Glòries Catalanes and 22@. Most often known as Glòries(Glorias), is a large square in Barcelona, has started with a big renewal project in 2000s and then in 2007, and the last in 2014. The first installment of this project was the construction of the controversial Torre Agbar skyscraper and finishing last year the park around the Design Museum of Barcelona. When we came for the first time to Barcelona in 2010, there were just Commercial Center Les Glories with its' children attractions and Torre Agbar, now, you can go with your child for a walk, play with a toddler, or run with your kids, all these opportunities were opened to a large public recently. If you, my dear reader do not have children, but want to come to this place you are very welcome, as you can go to Design Museum or just to make picture with one of the biggest skylines of Barcelona. As well there is a lot of space just to lay out and enjoy the sunny wether of Barcelona.

For mums with toddles: just when you go out from the Subway Station Glories L1(red line) , you will see a big open space where toddlers and kids run there and forth. The amazing thing which they can enjoy from staying there are neon lights, right on the ground, these change their colors and amuse children, toddlers skip, run, jump on these lights and you as mum can take a seat and enjoy their happiness.

Below some images from these amazing places.
