Montjuic means Mount of the Jews. It is an elevated area of Barcelona perched up high giving one a 360 degree view of the city...magnificent!
The 1992 Summer Olympics were held here. The stadium is still used today. Notice the photo of the Olympic torch. Do you remember how they lit that in 1992? An archer flew an ignited arrow into it and it burst into flames...perfect! Outside the stadium laid in the concrete we found many footprint tributes to athletes of the games. I have included a few...do you remember them?
We visited the Castle as well. There are the "Magic Fountains" that we passed by but they only light up Thursday through Sunday so we did not get to see the show.
