What to expect
You'll download the app, pick your language, and set off on a meandering 2.4 km circuit. At each of 19 marked spots, tap to hear a few minutes of recorded detail—architectural history, the Catalan character of the place, snippets of lore. The audio works offline, so no data drain. Navigation happens via 3D map; you can linger at cafés, skip ahead, or backtrack without pressure. Most stops are outdoors; some routes pass paid museums you can enter separately if keen.
Good to know
Bring your own headphones if you want them (not essential). The route suits any fitness level and takes roughly an hour, though you'll likely stretch it longer with stops. Service animals welcome. Text transcripts available for each audio segment.
