Beautiful public space. Lots of dogs, people taking photos, laying on the grass, running. A general sense of peace . Can spend about 2 hours here. Make sure to tip performers if you like their show.
A majestic structure parked in a beautiful district. Explore the gardens of the citadel before/after appreciating the arc in all it's glory. A beautiful district to go for a run through, too.
It is free! And it is a nice area. Bring your dog. This area is very dog friendly
This is a really spectacular public space. The boulevard is always full of activity, performances , and people relaxing. Safely segregated bicycle lanes.
Remarkable spot that you must visit when you’re in Barcelona.✨
Be sure to pay special attention to the unique design, which is based on Moorish architecture ! It is this very fact that sets it apart from the Arc de Triomf in Paris!
I really like this monument , the colours are beautiful late in the afternoon. My favourite Arc de Triomf in the world.
Good atmoshere and a nice park close to it. Just walk around the arch to see artists and find the zoo at the end of the park
So great addition to the achitecture of the city . Definitely different than other major historic or Gaudi works. But so beautiful. Scenic .
Arc de Triomf is a good meeting spot for friends. Love when they have events and festivals nearby!
The Arc de Triomf is a great landmark , it offers a nice walk to the parc de la ciutadella and is a great photo point anytime of the year.
Keep your eyes peeled for the bats that reside atop this famous landmark ! Legend has it that one of these creatures was King Jaume's lucky charm on the day of the Battle of Puig in 1238 A.D !
Nice place for walking,near is located the Barcelona zoo and a beautiful park with breathtaking cascade!
Great boulevard for a walk towards the park . Bring a picnic and enjoy the stroll

Great atmosphere on any sunny morning: skaters, dancers, performers , locals and tourists mingling in this landmark of the city .
It's not just Paris that can boast having an Arc de Triomphe. Barcelona has its very own Arc de Triomf too!
One of my favorite places in Barcelona ❤️
Amazing structure , great walk way up to it and easily photographed , unlike it’s Parisian sister.
Pleasant to walk through. Right next to the park . Busy area
Beautiful monument . You'll have a great scenic view of you enter from the side of the park .
walking distance from the Metro Arc De Triomf station
Beautiful structure in Barcelona. Perfect for an evening stroll, or even roller blading down the wide walk way!
Beautiful place to enjoy the sun and people around you but also target spot for pickpockets. Do not ever put your bags/purse at your side unattended when sitting down.
the arch is not uplit so it's much more scenic in daylight than night.
Can't miss this one, a must see and perfect meeting point in BCN!
A little bit crowded but amazing spot in Barcelona
Best seen in a summer evening when it's lit up and warm and lots of people hanging out.
Beautiful place. Try to go there for a night walk????
One of the nicest “arc de triomph”s out there.
Beautiful on a sunny day and close to tacos and great stuff nearby
A boulevard with a lot of action from performers and others. Great for walks.
Lovely one.. check the details of awesome architecture
I love walking by this monument and seeing all the people relaxing and enjoying the day. Quintessential Barcelona.
Nice to take a look at! At the entrance of the park .
Love it. A monument to celebrate the victory of wisdom and science.
Wonderful iteration of the archery every city inevitably has!
Very beautiful! Worth the visit!
Nice place to walk and to take some photos of the beautiful arc.
I think the best meetpoint in Barcelona!
A must see in Barcelona, a very lively place .
One of the icon in town .
Perfect picture opportunity and a nice park surrounding the area.
You must visit this place ????????
Awesome! Barcelona is the best!
This Neo-Mudéjar style arch was built in 1888.
Lay down on the grass and listen to the wind
NEVER LEAVE YOUR BAG UNATTENDED, AND IF SOMEONE ASKS FOR DIRECTIONS TO FAMOUS PLACES HOLD TIGHT ON EVERYTHING YOU OWN!!! Our backpack was stolen when we just saw away for 1 sec.
Great selfie spot
The entry was expensive but includes an excellent Audioguide. The views from the roof are amazing and of course the architecture is stunning. - Allison Coleman
Spend some time in the sun - grab some tapas and watch the world go by. - Sony Xperia™ Football
A must visit gem - make sure you get the audio as well! - Anne Bartlett-Bragg
Very big and nice place in the middle of Barcelona. Definitely a must see in BCN. Unfortunately thousands of pigeons are living here ???? - Michael Scharf
Great beach with warm, clear water (here in July) with no current. There's a lifeguard and plenty of places to get cheap mojitos! Very crowded but if you don't mind it's great - Chris Caricato
Very impressive waterfall-fountain. Go up the stairs and you have a great view to the park. - Olivér Kovács
