Barcelona Montjuïc and Magic Fountain Self-Guided Audio Walk: Barcelona Pavilion, MNAC Terrace and Gardens

About this experience

In 1929 Barcelona held a world's fair on Montjuïc and built the hillside as one great stage set: a gate of two towers, an avenue of light, a fountain, a staircase of water and a palace on top. Start between the Venetian Towers of Plaça d'Espanya and walk the avenue to the Magic Fountain, whose colors still pass through drums of glass from 1929. See the Casaramona factory, now CaixaForum, and the Barcelona Pavilion by Mies van der Rohe and Lilly Reich, then the four columns pulled down in 1928 and put back in 2010. Climb the cascades to the free terrace of the Palau Nacional for the view back down the axis, then cross the Laribal gardens to the Font del Gat and the Miró museum, and end in the Greek Theatre's rose garden. Eleven stops, about 2 km and 90 minutes, with stairs or escalators up the hill, at your own pace, in English. Entry to the Pavilion, the MNAC, CaixaForum and the Miró museum is not included; every stop works from outside.
