Everything else on this site costs nothing. These cost a little, and we list them because what you get is far bigger than the price.
€2A €2 basic ticket lets you into the Palau Nacional building and up to its rooftop viewpoint, without the art collection.
The cheapest high view in the city, over Plaça d'Espanya and out to Tibidabo. Go an hour before closing for the softer light.
€2.90The funicular from Paral·lel metro station climbs Montjuïc in two minutes and counts as an ordinary metro ride, covered by a single ticket or a T-casual journey.
Use it to save your legs on the way up, then walk down through the gardens. Do not confuse it with the cable car beside the top station, which costs many times more.

€4.20The walkways above the 1714 ruins are free, but this guided visit takes you down among the house walls and street paving.
Worth it if the free view from above made you curious. Check tour times and languages on the MUHBA page before you go.

€2.23The hedge maze garden is free on Wednesday and Sunday. On the other five days it costs €2.23 and is far emptier.
Pay the coins on a Tuesday or Thursday and you may have the maze to yourself. Bring exact change or a card.

No free slot exists for visitors and nothing else in the city looks like the inside: a forest of branching columns washed blue in the morning and orange in the late afternoon. Book a timed ticket weeks ahead and skip the tower add-on if money is tight.
Everything above is free. This is the only paid pick on the page, chosen because no free option replaces it.
