On the second day you can stop by La Pedrera (Casa Milá) and Casa Batlló located on Passeig de Gracia, along with Arc de Triomf. We recommend this mix because they´re really close to each other so you´ll get there easily.

After passing by the Arc de Triomf you may also walk down the Champs Elysees. Later another nice place to see is the Olympic Park, where Barcelona hosted the Olympic Games in 1992.
