<p>Colònia de Viladomiu Nou</p>

If you’re a curious-minded person looking for a great family day out, we recommend organising a trip to the textile model villages in the regions of Barcelona. Built at around the turn of the 20th century, they still contain fully-functioning machinery, fabrics you can feel and so many amazing stories that you’ll be blown away. So how about a journey back in time?

Did you know that Gaudí's starting point is located in Mataró? That Lluís Domènech i Montaner, the genius behind the Palau de la Música Catalana and the Sant Pau Hospital in Barcelona, refurbished a medieval castle in Canet de Mar? Patricia Rojas, La Cosmopolilla, a journalist and travel blogger, suggests a route through the Art Nouveau legacy of Maresme, a region of Costa Barcelona that is popular for its beaches and boasts a great heritage to discover. A real treat!

<p>Come by train to the Tower of the Cross ('Torre de la Creu') in Sant Joan Despí </p>
