Tibidabo

At 512 metres, Tibidabo is the highest point of the Collserola range and the highest viewpoint over Barcelona. The summit is crowned by the Sagrat Cor church, begun in 1902 and finished decades later, whose terraces look down over the whole city to the Mediterranean. Next to the church sits the Tibidabo Amusement Park, opened in 1905 and one of the oldest still operating in the world; several old rides, like the Avio plane ride, double as viewpoints of their own. The hill is reached by the Tibidabo Funicular, Spain's first funicular railway, connected from the city by the vintage Tramvia Blau.
