Let us end this 2015 - in which we have to admit we have been a bit lazy with the blog - with a good new: next year Casa Terrades (or Casa de les Punxes as barcelonians call it) will open to the public.
Complete restoration of the inner decor is being done and next year the visit of the building - including its amazing rooftops will be possible.
For now, you can enjoy the view of this incredible building by Puig i Cadafalch from the outside. It is in the way to Sagrada Familia and near other modernism landmarks as Casa Baró de Quadras (also in Avinguda Diagonal), so you have no excuse to miss it.

BARCELONA TOUR: THE OLD TOWN IN A SMALL BUS (BUS 120)
When planning your visit to Barcelona, it is very worth to take a look at the web of the Public Transportation Authority, TMB, to check if it is worth to pay a touristic bus or it is better to use public transportation.

As already discussed in a previous entry, Barcelona has a good and quite reliable network of buses and underground. Fares vary. You can buy a single ticket, which is the most expensive option, or buy day-tickets or a T10 card, which are far more cheap.
In any case, if you decide for public transportation, there are small buses with very interesting. One of them is number 120. With a route that covers Raval to barri de Sant Pere, crossing Ramblas and Born, it will offer you a nice trip around the old town and a good idea of the area neighbourhoods. A plus: no tourists use the line, so you are bound to travel with locals.
