You've marveled starry-eyed at the Sagrada Familia and Gaudi's many masterpieces, you've rambled down La Ramblas, sizzled on the beach, gone to town on tapas, and gawked at the Gothic Quarter. Now to make your Barcelona adventure really peak.
How about a vintage theme park sitting on a mountaintop overlooking the city? Enchanting visitors since 1899, Tibidabo Amusement Park is one of Barcelona's most spectacular attractions, where old-world charm meets timeless scenery.
Trundle up the Collserola Ridge in an antique funicular, and find yourself transported back in time. A heady mix of original vintage rides and modern rollercoasters sit 512 meters above Barcelona and the sparkling coastline beyond.
Soar over the city in Avió, the iconic red airplane modeled after the first plane to fly between Barcelona and Madrid, ride the L'Embruixabruixes aerial railway – the park's first-ever ride – and discover the clockwork charm of the Automata Museum.
Get dizzy in cups and saucers, chair-o-planes, a bright red rollercoaster, Ferris wheel, and cool off with the interactive water fountains that shoot jets of water complete with light, sound and color effects. Simply choose the ticket type that suits your idea of fun.
It wouldn't be Barcelona without some jaw-dropping architecture, so make sure to leave some time to check out the majestic Temple Expiatori del Sagrat Cor, a neo-Gothic minor basilica that's as astonishing inside as it is from outside.
Combine Tibidabo Amusement Park with other Barcelona favorites. Some things are better together.
