Getting around by metro Catalonia

Clean, practical, air-conditioned and renovated for the Olympic Games, Barcelona's metro makes it easy for you to discover the city thanks to its eight lines. They operate on weekdays from 5am to 12am, Fridays from 5am to 2am, and all night on Saturdays. Unlike the Parisian subway, here we compost on the left. You will mainly use the green line (L3) to visit the city: it serves the Ramblas, the Raval, the Plaça Catalunya, the Passeig de Gràcia... The yellow line (L4) leads to the beaches and the Born district!

Barcelona has excellent public transport links, thanks in particular to the city's metro system. The Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona (TMB) website is a valuable resource for visitors wishing to get around the city easily. It also offers tips for visiting Barcelona using public transport, as well as information on metro and bus lines. Visitors can also download the TMB app to buy tickets and get real-time information on timetables and any disruptions.

FGC operates a network of more than 300 km of railway lines throughout Catalonia. During a stay in Barcelona, you will use the FGC to reach Sant Cugat, Montserrat or Manresa. The FGC also has 3 urban lines (L6, L7 and L8) that complete the Barcelona metro network. These lines are very convenient to reach the heights of Barcelona (Gràcia, Sarria, Tibidabo) from Plaça Catalunya, with a simple metro ticket.
