My husband and I love visiting here when go to Barcelona as it has much to offer in way of entertainment, education and unique displays. I think, double check, it is free entry on public holidays! More

Despite being owned by a bank, this science museum is sincere and very well done. The rainforest is particularly good, better then the aquarium in Barcelona. More
