Description

It’s hard to imagine a hill with more things to see and do. If you fancy a day’s walk through parks and gardens, Montjuïc is a good option. You can visit the castle (originally a fortress and, after the Civil War, a military museum), eat in the Caseta del Migdia with Barcelona at your feet, and then explore some of the most beautiful landscaped gardens in Europe. Among the very best are the Gardens of Laribal (with their lovely waterfall), the Albéniz Mansion, the Gardens of Mossèn Cinto Verdaguer (dedicated to bulbs, rhizomes and aquatic plants), and the Gardens of Joan Brossa (a brilliant example of land restoration; for more than 30 years this was the Montjuïc amusement park).
