The Monastery of Sant Cugat in Spain is a hidden gem steeped in history and architectural brilliance. The medieval monastery boasts intricate carvings, a serene courtyard, and well-preserved Romanesque elements. Exploring its cloisters and chapels provides a glimpse into Catalonia's cultural heritage. The audio guides enhance the experience, offering engaging narratives about the monastery's past. Whether you appreciate religious history, architecture, or simply seek a tranquil retreat, the Monastery of Sant Cugat offers a captivating journey through time in a picturesque setting.

We came here on the off chance and are so glad we did. The Monastery is stunning to see and walk around. Outside there are many cafes and restaurants outside to relax in after the look around the Monastery.

We walked around the monastery and it was just amazing. Beautifully built, a lot of locals come here to chill and admire the architecture. If you’re looking for something spiritual, this place would be one of them.

This monastery is beautiful. It’s free to enter and it’s super interesting to learn about the history. We had to wait a bit before we could go inside the actual church, but it was worth the wait. The interior of the church is exquisite, eccentric and really well maintained. The church is still used for worship and as such you have to be respectful. It’s worth popping in if you have the free time while in Sant Cugat.

Sublime and monumental monestry at the heart of St.Cugat. I recommend to meditate while walking around the cloister's porticoid and feel its combination of peace and serenity. Amusing giants at the entrance, best representation of Catalan traditions. Extraordinary church that creates a deep divine feeling when the sun reflects on the rose window.

Great part of Catalonian history. A must visit place in Barcelona. Tickets are Free. We loved it and will go back for more cultural cravings. Saludos amigos.

Very beautiful and peaceful. I went late morning on a weekday so i basically had the place to myself. Entry is free to all parts of it. I was able to make my way around the entire grounds in about 45 minutes, though you could do it in less.

f you’re looking for a peaceful place to connect with nature, hug a tree, meditate, and enjoy the sound of birds, this is a great spot not far from Barcelona. There are several parking areas nearby, so you can easily park and explore the surroundings. After your walk, you can enjoy a meal at Masia Can Borrell. It’s also accessible by train for those without a car.

Busy area, but beautiful old pine tree. Great spot for walking. Area was clean and safe and lots of scenery and trees very close to all transport

Pretty nature walk and millenary pine tree

To get to it you need to walk through nature, I always see it cuz its my running route, families, friends, sport groups, couples, gather there sometimes, it's super nice, and it's Worth the small walk to get to it 🙌🏽🎉

Very peaceful walk from Sant Cugat. There are benches which allow for you to enjoy the scenery once you arrive.

Nice,decorative pine monument on the Camino de Santiago first stage from Barcelona to San Cugat.

Really a special place to visit, because witness the great heart of Catalans and their passion for this beautiful land

A wonderful theater. Amazing sound. Quite comfortable although not built for 6foot people..but still nice. Well located and lots of parking and food options near.

Excellent modern theatre with seating with views from all areas of the auditorium. I thought the acoustics were good. I saw a concert with Pablo Milanés as part of the Barcelona Guitar exposition, which is held every year. I had a brief look at the theatre's events which looked very good

I've been there a few times for lectures and concerts as well. It has great acoustics and A/C. It's a great experience altogether. You can eat something or have coffee right there at their Cafeteria. Seats are confortable even if it's an all day event.

Great venue. Sergio Dalma concert was brilliant! Good lighting and sound. Very comfortable and accessible.

Lovely place, we enjoyed a tango band with dancers, very good atmosphere, excellent sound for such a small village like Sant Cugat.

The stage is great to dance on, the acoustics of the theater are good, lighting is spot on, and the quality of the entertainment provided is spectacular. A++

A small but well appointed auditorium with an excellent and varied programme of music, theatre, opera and other shows.

This public park is a true gem! The beauty of the landscaped grounds is immediately evident, making it a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The well-maintained paths invite you to take a leisurely stroll or enjoy a peaceful jog. Lush greenery surrounds the area, providing a refreshing atmosphere that is both calming and invigorating. Families will find plenty of space for picnics and outdoor games, while children can happily explore the various play areas designed just for them. The cleanliness and care put into this park truly show the dedication to maintaining such a lovely community space. It’s a fabulous place to unwind or enjoy a day out with friends and family.

It's a huge park with a well built up area for families to host parties or events. Lots of slides swings and activities. Its my favourite park to spent time with family and friends. Take care of the park and respectfully enjoy the nature and keep it beautiful. However, no restrooms.

Best park around Barcelona. We just love this park, my kids can stay here for hours

Great park. The kids loved it here. I had the hard time telling them “it’s the last one” to go home. They simply wouldn’t stop!

Great place. Sunsets during summer are the best. Sun goes down between Montserrat mountains - Unique -

This is an amazing park for kids and adults and offers plenty of space to roam around

I was there in July with my 2 y.o. He liked some stuff, but most slides are for kids who a re a bit older (4-5 y.o.?) There's little shade, so better come early or in the evening. Otherwise even the slides are too hot for little bums

Nice place and good rest This is a medium level trekking path through the forest {from the Tibidabo it's cca 40-50 mins} and the "Sant Medir center" - next to the historic building, westward - is also a good place for making some photo...

Nice trip through the forest, there is a restaurant near by. At the site not much to see

(Translated by Google) Good trail route from Plà dels Maduixers passing through Font Groga. Spectacular!!!! (Original) Bona ruta de trail desde el Plà dels Maduixers passant per la Font Groga. Espectacular!!!!

(Translated by Google) It's a chapel located in Collserola Park, surrounded by nature. It's a beautiful, peaceful place, full of trees. There are several benches where you can rest, which is appreciated. It's great for cycling or walking. We went with the little ones and had a great time. It was a great experience, surrounded by lots of nature and a place to breathe fresh air in such a beautiful setting. Recommended. (Original) Es una ermita situada en el parque de Collserola, rodeada de naturaleza. Es un lugar precioso, tranquilo, lleno de árboles. Hay varios bancos donde descansar, cosa que se agradece. Está muy bien para ir en bicicleta o caminando. Nosotros fuimos con las peques y lo pasamos muy bien, fue una buena experiencia, con mucha naturaleza y donde poder respirar aire fresco en ese entorno tan bonito. Recomendable.

(Translated by Google) The Sant Medir hermitage is a sanctuary for cyclists and athletes! A place of peace and encounter! There's even a water fountain! (Original) La ermita Sant Medir es un Santuario del ciclista y deportista! Sitio de paz y de encuentro! Hay fuente de agua!

(Translated by Google) It is a charming hermitage, in Romanesque style and almost a thousand years of history (built in 1046 AD). It has been restored, but retains its original structure. It can be visited on the first and third Saturday of each month from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., and it is the place where the Festas de Sant Medir, pilgrimages and sometimes also huge gatherings are held. It is easily accessible from Barcelona and from Sant Cugat by paths that are easily accessible also for families with small children. It is located in the "Camp del Miracle" where there is a fountain with three spouts from which fresh water flows. (Original) És una ermita encantadora, d'estil romànic i gairebé mil anys d'història (construïda l'any 1046 dC). Ha estat restaurada, però conserva la seva estructura original. Es pot visitar el primer i tercer dissabte de cada mes d'11 a 13h, i és l'indret on es celebren les Festes de Sant Medir, romeries i en ocasions també trobades geganteres. És de fàcil accés des de Barcelona i des de Sant Cugat per uns camins de fàcil accés també per a famílies amb nens i nenes petits. Es troba en el "Camp del Miracle" on hi ha una font amb tres bocs d'on hi raja aigua fresca.

(Translated by Google) Nestled in the landscape lies the enchanting hermitage of Sant Medir, a Romanesque gem with almost a thousand years of history, whose foundation stone was laid in 1046 AD. Despite careful restoration, it has retained its original structure and invites visitors to take a journey back in time. The hermitage opens its doors to visitors every first and third Saturday of the month from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. It is not only a place of reflection but also the setting for the traditional Festas de Sant Medir, numerous pilgrimages, and occasionally large gatherings. Its location makes it particularly attractive: It is accessible from Barcelona and Sant Cugat via easily accessible paths that are also ideal for families with small children. Sant Medir lies in the mystical "Camp del Miracle" (Field of Miracles), where a fountain with three bubbling springs provides fresh water – a place that uniquely combines history, nature, and spiritual tranquility. (Original) Eingebettet in die Landschaft, verbirgt sich die bezaubernde Einsiedelei Sant Medir, ein romanisches Juwel mit einer fast tausendjährigen Geschichte, dessen Grundstein bereits im Jahr 1046 n. Chr. gelegt wurde. Trotz behutsamer Restaurierungen hat sie ihre ursprüngliche Struktur bewahrt und lädt zu einer Zeitreise ein. Die Einsiedelei öffnet ihre Pforten für Besucher jeden ersten und dritten Samstag im Monat von 11 bis 13 Uhr. Sie ist nicht nur ein Ort der Besinnung, sondern auch der Schauplatz der traditionellen Festas de Sant Medir, zahlreicher Wallfahrten und gelegentlich großer Versammlungen. Ihre Lage macht sie besonders attraktiv: Von Barcelona und Sant Cugat aus ist sie über gut zugängliche Wege erreichbar, die sich auch hervorragend für Familien mit kleinen Kindern eignen. Sant Medir liegt im mystischen „Camp del Miracle“ (Feld des Wunders), wo ein Brunnen mit drei sprudelnden Quellen frisches Wasser spendet – ein Ort, der Geschichte, Natur und spirituelle Ruhe auf einzigartige Weise verbindet.

Beautiful modern structure formerly used for collective wine making. Now a museum and occasional event space.

Former cooperative winery in striking modernist style with inverted catenary arches.

Beautiful place, worth visiting!

Good sample of modernist architecture

(Translated by Google) The Celler Cooperatiu de St Cugat is a good example of modernist architecture (late, from 1921) applied to industry - in this case, agro-industrial -.

(Translated by Google) A curious and interesting museum, very close to the Monastery. The former home of an early 20th-century ceramics manufacturer, it has been converted into a picture museum for his descendants.

(Translated by Google) The cloister of the Monestir de St Cugat houses the Museu de St Cugat. The Romanesque cloister and the Renaissance super-cloister are simply spectacular. In the first there are hundreds of columns that go in pairs and all their capitals are different, the work of Arnau Cadell. The museum is in the refectory, infirmary and kitchen of the monastery and in the upper cloister there is an exhibition on monasticism.

(Translated by Google) Today, the Monastery of Sant Cugat is an ideal place for those looking for a walk full of history, artistic beauty and tranquility. Surrounded by squares, gardens and terraces, the old town of Sant Cugat offers a charming atmosphere to complete the visit. The monastery has its roots in the 9th century, although it was built on an ancient Roman fortification and a primitive Visigoth church. Starting in the 10th century, a community of Benedictine monks was established, and the monastery became one of the most influential religious centers in the County of Barcelona. It is also in the center of town so visiting it is easy. (Original) Hoy, el Monasterio de Sant Cugat es un lugar ideal para quienes buscan un paseo cargado de historia, belleza artística y tranquilidad.

El monasterio tiene sus raíces en el siglo IX, aunque fue construido sobre una antigua fortificación romana y una primitiva iglesia visigótica. A partir del siglo X, se estableció una comunidad de monjes benedictinos, y el monasterio se convirtió en uno de los centros religiosos más influyentes del Condado de Barcelona. ademas esta en el centro del pueblo o sea que visitarlo es facil

(Translated by Google) One of the most beautiful and peaceful places I've ever been! The monastery cloister is simply magical. Stone arches, columns, silence, light and shadow - all this creates the feeling that you have fallen into another time. Very beautifully carved details on the columns - you can look at them endlessly, like living stories frozen in stone. There is a small but interesting museum around, which tells about the life of monks, about the structure of the monastery, about the meanings that were previously put into every detail. It is nice to hide there from the summer heat. I spent more than an hour there and did not want to leave. I just want to sit in this courtyard, look at the columns and listen to the silence. If you need a place to rest your soul - come here. (Original) Одно из самых красивых и спокойных мест, где я была! Клуатр монастыря — это просто магия. Каменные арки, колонны, тишина, свет и тень — всё это создаёт ощущение, будто ты провалилась в другое время. Очень красиво вырезанные детали на колоннах — можно рассматривать бесконечно, как живые истории, застывшие в камне. Вокруг — небольшой, но интересный музей, где рассказывается о жизни монахов, об устройстве монастыря, о смыслах, которые раньше вкладывали в каждую деталь. Приятно спрятаться там от летней жары. Провела там больше часа и не хотела уходить. Хочется просто сидеть в этом дворике, смотреть на колонны и слушать тишину. Если вам нужно место, чтобы отдохнуть душой — идите сюда.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful and quiet place with free entry and information in Catalan, Spanish and English. You can read about the history of the monastery and how it changed over time.

(Translated by Google) We went on 07/23/23 with a guided tour, Guia'm pel Monastir, it is free and prior registration is required. They do it every Sunday at 11 a.m., except the first of the month. It is a job placement project for people with Asperger Syndrome. The young guide, knew a lot about the Monastery, was great! Parking is great on Sundays since the blue zone is free! There are toilets, an elevator, it is adapted for people with reduced mobility. They make different visits, I give you the free ones but there are also paid ones.

The Monastery, the church, the tourist office, the Museum and the Abbey Palace are located in Plaça d'Octavià. In the center of the city, on the site where the Roman fortress of Castrum Octavianum stood. It was founded in the 9th century. In the Middle Ages it was fortified, a good part of the wall that surrounds it is still preserved. It was located on the road that linked the Roman cities of Barcino (Barcelona) with Egara (Terrassa). The Cloister: there is a lot of peace, it is worth entering and admiring the 144 columns with their different capitals, by the sculptor Arnau Cadell. In one of them he sculpted himself. We can see it in the northeastern pillar of the cloister space, where it can be read: This is the figure of the sculptor Arnau Cadell, who built such a cloister in perpetuity. There are capitals referring to the old and New Testament: dedicated to Adam and Eve, Noah and the end of the flood, the Miracle of the Loaves and the Fishes, the Triumphal Entry of Jesus into Jerusalem and the Three Marys buying perfumes, others with floral, animal, fighting motifs and many more. In the middle of the cloister there is a fountain, in the water there are orange fish. The birds come to drink and take a dip in the heat. There are also the remains of an early Christian church, where the relics of the martyr Cugat are kept. The construction of the Cloister began in the year 1190, thanks to the testamentary donation of Guillem de Claramunt, who wanted to be buried in this space near the tomb of the martyr Cugat. The church: it is free every day from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. and from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. It's worth going in, it's spectacular. Already at the entrance door itself we can see the large rose window from 1337. This is inspired by the rose window in the south transept of Notre Dame de Paris. On the upper outer part of the gate, there are paintings where you can see the star of Bethlehem. It is Romanesque in style and has a fully Gothic façade. Inside, I was surprised to see plasma TV screens on each column, so that parishioners can perfectly see everything that happens at the altar: mass, wedding, baptism, etc... Inside there are several works of art, altarpieces, different altars, each most spectacular, the large organ that seems as if it were suspended from the ceiling. The visit is totally recommended. In the terrace square with bars and restaurants. In the same square is the Museum dedicated to Marilyn Monroe and also nearby the Modernist Winery, the latter is free. (Original) Fuimos el 23/07/23 con visita guiada, Guia'm pel Monastir, es gratuita y es necesario inscripción previa. Lo hacen cada domingo a las 11h, excepto el primero de mes.

El Monasterio, la iglesia la oficina de turismo, el Museo y el Palacio Abacial, se encuentran en la Plaça d’Octavià. En el centro de la ciudad, sobre el solar en el que se asentaba la fortaleza romana de Castrum Octavianum. Fue fundado en el siglo IX. En la Edad Media fue fortificado, aún se conserva buena parte de la muralla que lo rodea. Estaba ubicado en la vía que unía las ciudades romanas de Barcino (Barcelona) con Egara (Terrassa). El Claustro: se respira mucha paz, vale la pena entrar y admirar las 144 columnas con sus diferentes capiteles, del escultor Arnau Cadell. En uno de ellos se autoesculpio. Lo podemos ver en el pilar nororiental del espacio claustral, donde puede leerse: Esta es la figura del escultor Arnau Cadell, que tal claustro construyó a perpetuidad. Hay capiteles haciendo referencia al antiguo como del Nuevo Testamento: dedicado a Adán y Eva, a Noe y el fin del diluvio, el Milagro de los Panes y de los Peces, la Entrada Triunfal de Jesús en Jerusalén y las Tres Marías comprando perfumes, otros con motivos florales, de animales, de lucha y muchos más. En medio del claustro hay una fuente, dentro del agua hay peces naranjas. Los pájaros vienen a beber y darse un chapuzon por la calor. También están los restos de una iglesia paleocristiana, donde se guardan las reliquias del mártir Cugat. La construcción del Claustro empieza en el año 1190, gracias a la donación testamentaria de Guillem de Claramunt, que quiere ser enterrado en este espacio próximo a la tumba del mártir Cugat. La iglesia: es gratuita cada día de 8 a 12h y de 18h a 20h Vale la pena entrar es expectacular. Ya en la misma puerta de entrada podemos ver el gran rosetón del 1337. Este se inspira en el rosetón del transepto sur de Notre Dame de París. En la parte exterior superior del porton, se aprecian pinturas donde se puede apreciar la estrella de Belén. Es de estilo románico y con una fachada plenamente gótica. En el interior, me sorprendió ver pantallas de plasma TV en cada columna, para que los feligreses puedan ver perfectamente todo lo que sucede en el altar: la misa, boda, bautizo ect... Dentro hay varias obras de arte, retablos, diferentes altares a cual más expectacular, el gran órgano que parece como si estuviese suspendido del techo. Recomendada totalmente la visita. En la plaza terraza con bares y restaurantes. En la misma plaza está el Museo dedicado a Marilyn Monroe y también cerca la Bodega Modernista, está última es gratuita.

(Translated by Google) Impressive monastery, beautiful. It preserves much of its perimeter wall, with turrets and stone entrance gates. The main building is the Gothic-style church. Next to the church, and with a separate visit, is the museum. The museum is located in part of the incredibly large, Romanesque-style cloister. A double-height cloister, notable for the double colonnade of the lower cloister and its marvelous capitals, carved with religious themes and various animals or monsters. In the inner courtyard, there is a fountain in the center, and the remains of an early pre-Romanesque or Visigothic church. It is a delight to wander through this wonderful cloister, unhurried, enjoying every detail, each capital of the double colonnade, the heads of the lower part of the lower cloister, and the tranquility it conveys. One of the must-see places in Catalonia, perhaps also one of the least known among the monasteries in that autonomous community. (Original) Impresionante monasterio, bellísimo. Conserva gran parte de su muralla perimetral, con torreones y puertas de acceso de piedra. El edificio principal es la iglesia, de estilo gótico. Junto a la iglesia, y con una visita separada de ésta, se ubica el museo. El museo está ubicado en una parte del increíble y gran claustro, de estilo románico. Un claustro de doble altura, donde destaca la columnata doble del claustro inferior y sus maravillosos capiteles, labrados con temática religiosa y diversos animales o monstruos. En el patio interior hay una fuente, en el centro del mismo, y los restos de una primitiva iglesia pre románica o visigoda. Es una delicia poder deambular por este maravilloso claustro, sin prisas, disfrutando de cada detalle, de cada capitel de la doble columnata, de las cabezas de la parte inferior del claustro bajo, de la tranquilidad que transmite. Uno de los lugares imprescindibles de Catalunya, quizás también de los más desconocidos dentro de los monasterios de esa comunidad autónoma.

Sant Cugat Shopping Center is a great place for a day out. It offers plenty of parking, which is always a huge plus. The variety of restaurants is impressive, and there’s a good mix of shops, including well-known stores like Decathlon and MediaMarkt. Additionally, the cinema provides a nice entertainment option. However, the shopping center could benefit from more modern entertainment options. It's also worth noting that some shops are closed on Sundays, which can be inconvenient. Overall, it’s a solid shopping destination, but with a few improvements, it could be even better. Rating: 4 out of 5 stars.

Settings and atmosphere are the best. Only one black dot may be a lack of maintenance in the toilets( not lacking of hygiene but repairs)

The center is being renovated and looks beautiful. Apart from that, there is a great variety of fashion, accessories and electronics stores. The Premium cinemas are a delight

Great service. It charges very fast my phone's battery

Pretty decent shopping mall in San cugat. Stores span over two levels. They have popular brands for clothing and general shopping as well. Parking was the main pain point. Parking is limited to just one level. Either there are too many cars or too few spots. Even on weekdays the lot is mostly full.

Poor offer of restaurants. Few places to sit on, and the ones available are really uncomfortable. I didn't like the place.

This is the nearest mall from my home so i love it. The place has everything be it grocery store, branded stores, cafe, restaurants and many more. I specially liked Carrefour store here, they have good collection of grocery items as well as garments. PS: in the picture you could see different types of tomatoes available in carrefour, i was amused to see it.

Even if it's new, the market is not too big. Nonetheless it has: meat, cheese, fruits & vegetables, sea food, bakeries, spices, etc. Works till 14

SUPERB market of fresh fruit & vegetables, fish and meat. A great old fashioned hardware shop with a genuinely friendly and knowledgeable owner. A big key cutter, repair locksmith, a great cheese & yogurt shop and even a small Condis supermarket. One of the best fresh markets I've seen in Barcelona. Not cheap but great selection and quality. Good parking outside which vendors will validate if you buy stuff. Try it

Fantastic market, open almost everyday, where you can find really everything. There are 3 butchers, 4 fish shop, 2 fruits and vegetables shop, a shop specialized just in the production of beans, a bakery, a solo bio and vegan products, a shop specialized in milk and milk based product (fantastic yogurts there!), and a couple of places where you can buy jamon and other typical stuff. All products that I have tried were extremely good, and also the environment is friendly: the shop owners are nice people. Moreover, if you are missing something, there is even a mini-market inside! And also a small flower shop. I mean, really, a great place!

Good place for seafood and meat lovers and you can buy fresh food. A bit expensive but good quality seafood and meat.

Good choice of organic fruits and vegetables, there’s also a stand that sells BIO dry fruits and cereals (porridge included), chickpeas, lentils etc.

Good selection of stands selling local fresh products - not particularly cheap.

Amazing selection of meats, fish and produce. Helpful staff always ready to answer my questions in broken Spanish.

(Translated by Google) Can Ninot is a small but endearing place, where the little ones can enjoy puppet shows of all kinds. We have been there a few times and the child is delighted with the stories that are told there. Recommended :) (Original) Can Ninot és un lloc petit però entranyable, on els més petits poden gaudir d'espectacles de titelles de tot tipus. Nosaltres hi hem anat uns quants cops i el nen encantat amb les històries que s'hi expliquen. Recomanable : )

(Translated by Google) We went to see L'Arbre de les Sabies after having read a thousand times the book in English and in Català and my 2-year-old daughter Flipó! He loved the theater and every time we spent he wants to enter, he wants more. We want to come back! Thanks for your work so important for the culture of the younger ones ❤🤗 (Original) Fuimos a ver L'arbre de les Sabates después de haber leído mil veces el libro en inglés y en català y mi hija de 2 años flipó! Le encantó el teatro y cada vez que pasamos por allí quiere entrar, quiere más. Tenemos ganas de volver! Gracias por vuestro labor tan importante para la cultura de los más jovenes ❤🤗

(Translated by Google) We love this little theater. We've been 3 times and will be back for sure. Very entertaining works for the little ones (my 3-year-old daughter doesn't miss a detail) and also for the grown-ups. It's great to have a stable of puppet theater so close. (Original) Ens encanta aquest petit teatre. Hem anat 3 cops i hi tornarem segur. Obres molt entretingudes per als petits (la meva filla de 3 anys no perd detall) i també per als grans. És genial tenir un teatre estable de titelles tan a prop.

(Translated by Google) The theater is for children, very small, the pity that playing a function of the legend of Sant Jordi for children, makes too many political allusions that children have no idea, otherwise entertaining (Original) El teatro es para niños, muy pequeño, la lástima que suendo una función de la leyenda de Sant Jordi para niños, haga demasiadas alusiones políticas que los niños no tienen ni idea, por lo demas entretenido

(Translated by Google) We went with our children and a friend to see some puppets and the children enjoyed it very much and were very attentive. We will definitely repeat! (Original) Vam anar amb els nostres fills i una amics a veure unes titelles i els nens van gaudir moltíssim i van estar i van estar molt atents. Segur que repetirem!

(Translated by Google) Let's go see Filomena's work, she goes to the forest to look for her uncle, and my daughter loved it. Perfect for a one and a half year old girl because it only lasts 30 minutes. Thanks (Original) Vem anar a veure l’obra de la filomena va al bosc a buscar al tió i li va encantar a la meva filla. Perfecte per una nena d’un any i mig perque només dura 30 minuts. Gràcies
