In and Around Barcelona

One of the charms of Barcelona is to observe from the air. If you do not have the opportunity to look at it from the plane, we offer an interesting alternative.

In the district of Barceloneta is the Torre de Sant Sebastian. Waiting for the elevator tower 78 meters high, we notice the air impregnated with salt. We are very close to the sea.

The elevator has glass walls, so you can see the landscape as you climb. If you have an appetite, you can continue to the second floor to the Torre de Alta Mar Restaurant, a place to enjoy some stunning views and the best gastronomy in the country.

The first floor is the station for the cable car  that will take you Montjuic and its gardens.

The journey is exciting. At your feet, the port and on the horizon, the city. The first stop on our tour is the Torre de Jaume I. There is still a way to Montjuic. Just stopped to pick up more passengers.

The cabin is fully enclosed for safety, but the feeling is almost the same as if it were not. You find yourself hanging from a cable, sharing with the rest of the passengers a spectacular view of the district of Ciutat Vella, the Rabal the ramblas of flowers, colon, port ..

Few meters more and cyou arrive at  Montjuic. A mountain in the middle of Barcelona.

The journey has been fun. Now we have to know Montjuic, museums, theaters and sports .. and if you want to stay close to this wonderful area, please consult our apartments barcelona!
