....because when the storm rolls in....

....it is quite spectacular.

...because of the buildings that make the Museo Picasso....

... the 5 old palaces (13-15th century) in Calle Montcada that make up the present Musuem are as interesting and beautiful as the Art they now house.  Hundreds of years of history...if only these walls that tell the stories of Picasso, could also tell the stories of all they have seen...

...because of the breathtaking view for the BCN2013 Diving Championship...

....for the 2013 FINA World Championship Mens 10m platform dive, the 1992 Olympic Diving Pool at Piscina de Picornell on Montjuic was reinstated. Its spectacular view combined with the world championship diving makes for a breathtaking afternoon in Barcelona!

...because at the top of the tower is the Torre d'Alta Mar...

...tucked at the top of the tower, under the Teleférico (cable car), is Torre D'Alta Mar with its tremendous views and tantalising food. While you dine, you can watch the sunset over Barcelona and the night lights begin to sparkle.  It is a place to celebrate and appreciate (and be besotted again) by Barcelona.
