Montjuic - the Jewish Mountain is situated high above the city center of
Barcelona. It is a luxuriant, residential enclave which is known for bestowing
amazing city views and displaying spectacular art like you would have never seen
before.
Plaça Espanya is the transportation hub of Montjuic and is quite accessible
by the L1 and L3 metro lines. After reaching Plaça Espanya you can easily reach
Montjuic by taking a walk along Gran via. If you do not want to travel by Metro
you can avail one of the city bus services that are available from popular spots
such as L'Eixample and Plaça Catalunya.
As soon as you will exit from your bus or Metro to the Plaça Espanya, you
will be able to see Museu Nacional d'Arte de Catalunya or MNAC. The view of this
art center looming from the pinnacle of a large stone staircase will be amazing.
The walk away to the museum is also lined with beautiful fountains making the
entrance to the museum a grand threshold.
You can also visit the famous Catalonian artist Joan Miro. The artist is
quite famous for his imaginative and figurative works that feature abstracts of
birds, stars, women and other basic figures. A lot of these consist of thin ink
lines and he is charmed because of his descriptive and lengthy titles that he
gives to his works.
You must also visit the CaixaForum which is a free museum that is operated by
Caixa bank. The museum features a number of art exhibitions that contain
paintings, sculptures, photography and digital art. These features keep on
changing in order to assure that this museum always remain worth a view. You may
also browse the bookshop which is known for some mind blowing collections of
books.
The former Olympic diving complex of Barcelona is also a treasure but it is
not very famous. You can enjoy swimming here while gazing at a number of
landmarks including Sagrada Familia. The pool is never crowded and the setting
is known to be quite stunning.
During the late evening, you must visit the Font Magica which was built for
the purpose of world exposition in the year 1929. These enormous musical
fountains are beautifully choreographed and you can see the fountains dancing
after every half-hour during the summer evenings. You'll be thrilled to watch
various combinations of themes that are tacky, entertaining, inspiring and weird
as well.
