Viewpoints in Barcelona

One of my favorite things of living here is that there are so many places where you can enjoy the beautiful views of Barcelona. Today I wan to share my favorite ones.

Bunkers del Carmel

Anyone that did some research on what to see in Barcelona probably already heard of the Bunkers del Carmel. It is my absolute favorite view of Barcelona. From here you can see EVERYTHING! Plus next to the Bunkers there is an amazing park with also beautiful views of Barcelona. It is called Parque del Guinardo.

It is free to enter. Note: When it is getting dark, police will come to ask everyone to leave because of safety reasons.

Carrer de Molist

This is one of my favorite streets in Barcelona, of course because of the amazing view but also because most of the time it is really quiet. So you can enjoy the view in peace 🙂
