Take a day trip out of Barcelona to the amazing Dali Museum in the town of Figuera. Its an easy (though rather long) train journey out of Barcelona - making it an excellent day trip destination.
The Museum is set in the town's old municipal theatre and it is an amazing spectacle - everything that you would expect from Dali and more. Dare I say, even those who usually detest art galleries will love this place. You will find many of Dali's paintings brought to life as sculptures in the amazing courtyard areas and well as all manner of weird and wonderful paintings and objects from the world's best known surrealist.
Once you have had your fill of Dali, there are plenty of shops cafes to wonder around and watch the world go by.
