Barcelona |
Barcelona's other major green area is 550m-high Tibidabo to the northwest, with its panoramic views of the city, amusement park on the summit, and Torre de Comunicaciones de Collserola (Collserola Communications Tower). Both Montjüic and Tibidabo offer good sports facilities. Tibidabo is the name given to the summit of Collserola hill. This is where you'll find the city's oldest - and only remaining - amusement park. Built in 1899, it offers more than thirty different and exciting rides. The most popular is La Atalaya (the watchtower), with its fantastic views. Some of the original 19th-century attractions are still here, like the Museo de Autómatas (Mechanical Museum). Next to it stands the modernist-style Church of the Sacred Heart, which you can easily spot as you come up the hill on the Tramvia Blau (blue tram) by its enormous statue of Christ overlooking the city.
