Local area

The park covers an area of 17.18 hectares (0.1718 square kilometers). The design clearly demonstrates the architect's hand, and the peculiar style of Gaudi is evident in any element. There are corrugated ways, like rivers of lava, and walkways covered with columns that have forms of trees, stalactites and geometric shapes. Many of the surfaces are covered with pieces of pottery or glass as a mosaic of colors, which is called Trencadís (brittle).

This amazing church takes the breath of any person who visits it. The amazing details and the complex geometry take you to another dimension. Both the interior and exterior complexity make you admire Gaudi more. The three facades are called : Nativity, Passion and Glory. Each facade has 4 tall towers and with the additional 6 towers, the total number will reach 18. The construction began in 1883 and Gaudi took over the project in 1891.

An unforgettable way to get to Montjuïc Castle. The cable car links the city to the top of Montjuïc. To do so, it climbs 84.5 metres on a 750-metre run that shows the whole of Barcelona, from the Serra de Collserola to the sea. The cable car has three stations: Parc de Montjuïc, Miramar and Castell de Montjuïc, and is fully accessible. A must-do experience!
