The Picasso Museum is across Via Laietana, down Carrer de la Princesa, and right on Carrer Montcada - a street known for Barcelona's most elegant medieval palaces. Picasso spent several of his formative years (1901-06) in Barcelona, and this collection, while not one of the world's best, is particularly strong on his early work. Displays include childhood sketches, pictures from the beautiful Rose and Blue periods, and the famous 1950s Cubist variations on Velázquez's Las Meninas (Ladies-in-Waiting).COST: EUR4.50; free 1st Sun. of month. Tues.-Sat. 10-8, Sun.

The best views of the city can be seen from the cable car up Montjuic, where the still uncompleted Antonio Gaudi church, the Sagrada Familia and an impressive Gothic cathedral, dominates the Barcelona skyline. Barcelona city breaks are a cultural delight, with the city being home to art collections, which include Picasso and Miro and an array of artistic and historical treasures.
