Another place you might wanna check out in Barcelona is the Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau (in English, the Hospital of the Holy Cross and Saint Paul).
The several buildings that compound it and the surrounding areas were designed has any hospital should be - a pleasant place where people go to recover - just admire the beautiful gardens in the photo bellow.
Although the place is classified as UNESCO World Heritage Site and there's another new hospital nearby all of this old Gothic style pavilions are still in full function.
Above a few photos with some of the delicious details of the buildings and an interior picture of the main hall.

Hi Dune!
All the photos are mine with exception from those of the Mauritius which were sent to me by a reader (Cornel and Juliet)! And yes, you should visit Spain, it's very nice - just take a look at the photos from the Canary Islands - I think you'll like them to ;)
