MNAC

The location for the fountain featured in my last post is the area in front of the MNAC (Museu Nacional D'Art de Catalunya).  The day following our fountain adventure we headed back to the MNAC as it was piddling down with rain and we thought an indoor pursuit would be best.  Ironically (or just luckily) as we were heading there the weather totally changed and it was scorching hot and dry as a bone.  Ah well.  As it was a Sunday they were closing at 2.30pm, and we got there for 1.00pm, so we had enough time, but not ages and ages to try and take it all in.

I really liked the space.  I'm not a huge fan of just white, white, white walls (I'm obsessed with colour) but of course in a museum or art gallery setting the minimal and serene setting is crucial, and I really noticed it here at the MNAC as they got it so right.  

Here is a right mix of iphone and DSLR photos of our visit.













Such amazing views
I couldn't resist! hehe



I stared at this for aaaages

Such a wonderful use of space for 'taking it all in'


Everything had such intricate detail


These stairs were mesmerizing!


As most of our Barcelona adventures involved being outdoors, I'm so glad that our one indoor activity was here.  Definitely worth a visit.
