The Cathedral is a must-see, both inside and out... and don't forget the roof. Yes, included in the ticket, you can take a tiny lift to the roof and enjoy a close-up view of the Cathedral spires and the rooftops of Barcelona. Open for viewing from 10:00 am and I recommend going early to avoid crowds.
