by Hosell Another nice place not to be missed during your days in Barcelona is go up to the mountain called Montjuic,the best way to go there is taking a cable car located at Port Vell,also you can go by bus.In thi mountain,is located the MILITARY MUSEUM,and some buildings made for Olympic Games in Barcelona in 1,992 as Olimpic Stadium and TV torre de Calatrava. If you are visiting this part of the city,don't miss see The Botanical Gardens,located close to the Castle of Montjuic. From here you can see some beautiful views of the city of Barcelona.

by hamouras Visit Montjuic park Montjuic has a great panoramic view of Barcelona. We used to go there during spring and summer with my flatmates and with friends to relax, read a book, have some fun or a picnic or juggle. Hey, that's me juggling over there. And look how i manage with three juggling balls in my hands and one on my head! Well, it's not really on my head. It's a bulb a few metres behind me. Leave a Comment

by Janina_B. MONTJUIC is the most important recreational area in Barcelona - an oasis of calm and nature in the middle of the urban agglomeration. Leave a Comment

by JaumeBCN But the Montjuïc mountain is not only famous for the Olympic facilities. In fact, it is more important for having some of the most interesting museums and facilities in town. This is the entrance to the Montjuïc mountain through Plaça Espanya and the Venetian towers. The Fira de Barcelona (Barcelona's Fair) is located here since 1929. It is one of the most important Fairs in Europe. The Barcelona Congress Palace was also placed here. Leave a Comment

by JaumeBCN The 1929 World's Fair was very important for Barcelona, and above all for the mountain of Montjuïc, because many important town planning works were created. One of the pavilions, the German one, still remains here. It is the Mies Van Der Rohe Pavilion rebuilt in 1985 due to popular claim. The building is considered a jewel & a paradigm of Contemporary Architecture. Inside there is the 'Barcelona chair' also designed by Mies Van Der Rohe. Leave a Comment

by ChicaAmable Montjuïc, or Hill of the Jews, is the site of the 1992 Olympics. You can take the metro or a bus to this area. In addition to the Olympic area, sites of interest include the Poble Espanyol (Spanish Village), museums, the Palau Nacional (National Palace), and the Castell de Montjuïc (Montjuïc Castle). This picture is a view of the port from the hill.

I have to confess- I always thought that the Palau Nacional was the Olympic stadium. I guess I was just confused by the footage I saw aged 14 of the magic fountains, with the Palau Nacional behind them, which they showed at the end of every Olympic programme here. More of the magic fountains later... I really didn't get chance to explore Montjuic enough; there are a couple of interesting museums, and the Miro museum in particular was one that I was sorry to miss. However, if you walk down the hill from the Miro Museum (away from the Olympic stadium), you come to a viewpoint with a little outdoor cafe/kiosk that offers one of the best views across any city that you could hope to see. It's simply an outstanding view, and even more so I imagine if it's clear, not slightly hazy as it was the day I was up there. Leave a Comment Directions: You can take a bus from Placa Espanya (number 61 or 50) up to the Olympic Stadium.

Montjuic is a mountain 200 m high. It had only military significance for a long tim. The most popular sight of MOntjuic is POBLE ESPANYOL, an exhibition of Spanish art and architecture in the form of an artificial village designed to show off the beauty of different styles of Spain regions. Leave a Comment Directions: Then take a Funicular to the Parc de Montjuic.
