Timeline

  1. 16:30

    Tierra Latina

    Grab a quick bite of chicken while the light is still bright. The terrace is busy, so you can people-watch and plan your walk.

  2. 17:00

    Museu de la Tècnica de l'Empordà

    Walk down the Rambla to the Museu de la Tècnica de l'Empordà. Visit the second floor to see the breathtaking collection of antique typewriters. Note that the museum opens only for a few hours depending on the season, so check if it is still open at this time.

  3. 17:30

    Salvador Dalí

    Head to the Salvador Dalí public art piece. It is located to the west-southwest of the museum. Stand back and look for the setting sun catching the artwork as the sky turns pink and orange.

  4. 18:00

    Nu

    End your evening at the Nu public art piece. It is a short walk south-southeast from the Dalí statue. The fading light creates a quiet, reflective atmosphere to finish your walk.

Local tip

The museum is 'Daily by appointment', so you must confirm opening times before you go. Catalan lunch hours are late, which is why the Crêperie Bretonne is often empty at noon, but it is a good spot if you need a break earlier.

Check before you go

  • Museu de la Tècnica de l'Empordà: Opens only for a few hours depending on season. Confirm opening status before visiting.
