The town of Figueres is located between Barcelona and the French border. It is accessible by rail from Barcelona (just 53 mins) and by overnight train from Paris. When walking about the town – don’t miss The Face of Dali at the end of the Rambla– a tribute by the city to its most famous resident in 1961. The Torre Galatea at the Dalí Museum-Theatre in Figueres Catalonia.

Dali often painted at this house and his parents built him a studio there and even organised an exhibition of his work after his first year of art school – in the house. When Dali moved to Madrid and Paris he often invited friends such as Fernando Federico Lorca, Luis Buñuel and Reny Magritte to holiday with him in Cadaques. It was the place he was first photographed upon his return in 1948 to Spain following the Spanish Civil War.

Today, Cadaques is a full of restaurants, craft shops and galleries and is a very pleasant place to spend a day or two.

Just one kilometre away from the bustling port is Dali’s House at Portlligat. Its bays and inlets offer a beautiful backdrop for one of the most special residences in Spain. The house – open to the public – is full of personality, charm and wit. We love the studio where Dali worked, the large egg on a rooftop, his wife, manager and muse Gala’s round room and of course, the pink lips and other sculptures in the garden.Ĭadaques and Portlligat are best reached by car from Figueres. And if you have the time – you can explore nearby Cap de Creus. The cape’s unusual rock formations feature in a number of Dali’s works such as The Persistence of Memory. The cape was declared a national park in 1998. The garden at Pubol Castle – Gala’s haven in Catalonia. Photo credit: El próximo viaje / Victoriamdq via photopin ccĪs a child, Dali was a frequent visitor to the Catalonia capital and was struck by the modernism of UNESCO-listed architect Gaudi’s work. In an interview with Revista magazine in 1953, Dali spoke about Park Güell and the need to fund-raise for Gaudi’s as yet unfinished La Sagrada Familia (it’s still unfinished!). In 1956, Dali gave a talk at the Park in honour of the architect. He also loved Gaudi’s La Pedrera building and cites it in French publication in 1930 and in 1952 was photographed there for a Spanish publication. Elsewhere in the city there are many galleries, museums and theatres where Dali exhibited and spoke that are still open to the public – for example the Salas Pares where he frequently exhibited at the beginning of his career the Teatro Goya where he designed set for a play in 1927 – for his friend Lorca. And the Ateneu – where he spoke at a conference in 1950.

Remember to change the folder where AptanaStudio3 and its Icon resides in order to make it work properly.Unfortunately many of the restaurants and bars Dali frequented have closed or deteriorated significantly.NOTE: As of Decemthe most recent Ubuntu 16.04 kernel 4.4.0-53 performs extremely well and better than 4.8.4 in most circumstances. Icon=/home/geppettvs/Documents/Aptana_Studio_3/icon.xpmĪnd place it inside of the ~/.local/share/applications/ folder. desktop file with the next contents on it: Įxec=/home/geppettvs/Documents/Aptana_Studio_3/AptanaStudio3 If you wish to add an Application Icon to your Applications list from the Unity Launcher (or any other launcher like Synapse) you can simply create a. Optionally you can move the extracted folder and it contents to your local programs folder /usr/bin via gksudo nautilus or via terminal but I think it is not needed unless you wish to invoke it via terminal.

If you downloaded standalone version you can place Aptana Studio in whatever Folder you wish and invoke it by double clicking in the AptanaStudio3 icon as shown in the next screenshot:
