Monument a Colon, Barcelona, Spain

- Sightseeing travel tip
- City center
It is located right at the end of las Ramblas. Has a lift that will get you up to the top of the monument, to a hight of 60 m.
It gives you a great view to the whole city. What is interesting, you will find on every window the names of the sights that you can see looking to that direction.
Although it is really great, the space inside is a little small, so you might be prepared if you don't like tight places. :)
Address:
Barcelona, Spain
How to get there:
It is on the Southern end of the boulevard Las Ramblas.
