Barcelona Sights – Our 7 Favourites

Font Màgica

Plaça d’Espanya was made famous during Barcelona´s 1992 summer Olympics, thanks to Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caballe´s ´Barcelona´ performance. The magic fountain (or Font Màgica) sits at the top of a thoroughfare which is located just below the Palau Nacional on the imposing Montjuïc hill. On certain evenings when the fountain is activated, thousands of visitors flock to enjoy its spectacular performance of dancing water, uplifting music and multi-coloured lights with the Palau National shining like an omniscient beacon in the background.

However long you choose to stay in Barcelona or whatever you end up visiting – one thing is for certain; you´ll be sure to come back again. If not for the beauty of the city, then for the warm of climate and the hospitality that it has to offer.
