  2. Nice post. The Picasso Museum has many works of art. Camp Nou is a must visit as it is the biggest stadium. You can see huge display of cups won, photographs of players in Barcelona FC Museum. Cathedral de la Santa Creu church is the most splendid and awe-inspiring church in the city. Definitive example of the modernity and sanguinity of Barcelona is Agbar Tower. You can enjoy many water sport activities in Port Vell.
