  • Masia Freixa & Parc de Sant Jordi: blue bays on the park edges — two metered hours cover the photo stop
  • mNACTEC & Vapor district: the museum quarter has garages; street bays rotate fast on weekdays
  • Centre shopping (Carrer Major): pedestrian — use the Raval/Portal de Sant Roc garages

Lunch like a local: arrive 13:15, pay 15 minutes, and the 13:30–16:30 free window carries your whole modernisme circuit.
