Montjuic

spaceball Montjuic spaceball Montjuic 279051114 dc9e457734 Montjuic Montjuic is one of the two hills around Barcelona and is a very nice place to visit or step away from the crazy city centre. The mountain has two faces, firstly there is the East side of the mountain. You can access it in three ways: on foot, by bus of by Funicular (The cable train/lift who takes you from the Paral.lel Metro station to the top of Montjuic.)

The nicest but most expensive way is off course the Funicular. On the way to the top you will be able to enjoy views of playing children and people relaxing on one of the hillside parks. On top of the mountain you will see a Medieval Castle.
Secondly there is the West side of the mountaitn and this side can be reached on foot from Plaza Espanya.  People who don’t like too many stairs can even take the escalators.

Make a walk on this side of the mountain and you will see some of the most beautiful Olympic stadions and artworks designed for the 1992 Olympics. On top you will encounter the colossal palace, the National Museum of Catalan art. On your way down you should stop at the Poble Espanyol, an authentic Spanish village.

Tip: Go to the entrance near Plaza Espanya and watch the magic fountain at night, a really beautiful spectacle!!!

Maybe this post can be interesting too
