Barcelona

At the highest point of the mountain of Tibidabo, Barcelona, have fun, visit cultural and spectacular views a crush with the TibidaboHace a few weeks I visited with my friends the ciudad condal. We went a little comodones because we decided to take a taxi from the airport to the apartment in Barcelona, but the truth is that to be four did us not very expensive (about 6 euros per head). In addition, des taxi you are going into the city little by little and tomas first contact (none had never been in Barcelona). My what struck me more was a mountain that I could see from the window of the taxi and that he was a kind of Church (or so it seemed) on top. When I asked the taxi driver he told me that it was the mountain of Tibidabo, the highest peak of the Sierra de Collserola with 512 meters, and that what was on the top was the temple Expiatorio of the sacred heart, begun in 1902 and completed in 1961.

Since then, my obsession during the entire trip was to climb that mountain, which was fascinating. Uploading the highest point of the ciudadLa truth is that my friends not felt the same curiosity than I, but I managed to convince them that we go when I informed them that there was an amusement park, one of the first built in Spain (told it me in the tourist office which is located in Placa Catalunya, the most central of the city). So we started heading to the great Observatory with a bus that we took at the same Placa Catalunya Barcelona (we were told that there was also a funicular, but we had to catch trains to Av. Tibidabo stop, and the blue tram, which is legendary, built in 1901). The bus climbed a somewhat difficult road but that gradually would discover us a panoramic view of the most beautiful city.
