Why is access to Park Güell regulated?

From October 2013, Barcelona City Council has got under way a plan for regulation of Park Güell, with the priority objective of preserving this iconic space of our city and keeping it in the best possible state of conservation. For years now, Park Güell and its entire surrounding area have been suffering from mass tourist visits that involve serious disturbance for local residents, as well as a constant degradation of this architectural heritage, unique in the world.

The income generated by this tourist management will be used to improve Park Güell and its setting.
