Columbus's Monument by Gratis in Barcelona

If you look north, you’ll be able to make out the Ciutat Vella District and the city’s historic building: the bell towers of the Cathedral, Santa María del Mar and La Merçè. You’ll see the bustling Las Ramblas, which meanders up to the Catalunya Square and marks the entrance to the Eixample District, where you’ll find the city’s main modernists landmarks and the Sagrada Familia church.

If you look towards the sea, to the east, and follow the coastline, you’ll be able to see the modern Forum in the distance with its photovoltaic cell and tall buildings. Nearer to you, the twin towers flank the entrance to the Olympic Marina. The old harbour, or Port Vell, and the industrial port are below you at the foot of the monument.

To the south, stands Montjuïc Mountain, with its castle at the top. Montjuïc is also the site of museums, gardens, theatres and the Olympic Ring. At the foot of the hill, just beyond the Reials Drassanes that house the Maritim Museum, you’ll see the three chimeneys at the botoom of the Paral·lel, and avenue which is a major retail, cultural and entertainment hub.

And finally, if you look west, you’ll see Collserola Natural Park, the vast green lung surrounding the city, with the Collserola Tower and the Tibidabo Amusement Park as its two stand-out attractions.
