North-West from Barcelona there’s a breathtaking place 512 meters high. This place is called Tibidabo Mountain and the spectacular city and coastline panorama disclosing from the top is really worth going for. In addition to the amazing sightseeing possibilities, this place has something else to offer for the whole family, as it is also the place where the amusement
park, the church and the telecommunication tower are located. So when you had enough of the street-walking and museum-visiting, consider leaving your laziness in your vacation rental in Barcelona and coming to the park together with your friends or family. If you are an extreme-lover, you will probably be disappointed, as this park is more of a view and friendly-atmosphere thing, however there are also big roller coasters on the top, so some fear is guaranteed. The park is the oldest one in Barcelona and one of the three oldest parks in Europe, being built in 1889, having the rides dating back to the 19 century. If you like the movie “Vicky Christina Barcelona”, it’s one more reason to visit the park, as some of the scenes were filmed here. The railway that comes to Tibidabo was built more than 100 years ago, but if you don’t trust very old things, you can also come by bus, leaving from Plaza Catalunya or by car. It takes less than half an hour to get there from the center of the city.
Adult all-day pass ticket costs 25 EUR, children 90-120 cm go for 9 EUR and children shorter than 90 cm can join for free. After a day in that kind of place, you will definitely appreciate the advantage of cheap flats Barcelona comparing to the hotels, as it gives you more privacy and possibility to rest in a quiet and home-like atmosphere.
