With its wide variety of galleries, art aficionados on a holiday in Barcelona may find choosing where to go first a little daunting, however the Picasso Museum should surely be top of everyone's list.

However, those looking for a wider sense of culture will not be disappointed as works by Raoul Dufy, Egon Schiele and Max Ernst are just some of the wide variety of artists that have been on display in the past.
Tourists will also have the opportunity to stop off at the museum shop to pick up a variety of souvenirs ranging from jewellery and books to t-shirts and posters.
Meanwhile, visitors can lounge in the library, which specialises in Picasso and his entourage, before grabbing a bite to eat at the cafe.
