Since the weather today was slightly sunny and warm, we decided to start the day at a park in the same town as our hostel, Horta. Horta is actually about a 15 minute metro ride outside of Barcelona, and it’s a nice area if you want to stay in a quieter area. One of the town’s major attractions is El Parc del Laberint d’Horta, Labyrinth Park of Horta, which is free every Wednesday and Sunday. This park is actually a bit far from the main part of town, and we needed to take a bus plus walk another mile in order to get there. Nonetheless, I would still recommend visiting if you have spare time on one of the free days. Plus, it’s a great way to take a break from all the busy streets of Barcelona.
The foremost reason why we wanted to go to El Parc del Laberint was, well, to see the labyrinth. We were afraid the labyrinth would be small, but it was actually decently sized. There were lots of children running around and yelling to each other, but there were plenty of adults as well. Seeing people of all ages navigate through and becoming frustrated made the experience more authentic.
