We took the no 50 bus from one street above the Placa Catalunya on Via de les cortes Catalanes which took us past Placa d'Espanya and up to Montjuic getting off at the Teleferic.
We bought a one way ride on the Teleferic (ski- lift) high in the sky above the city and passing a second station to the Castle.From...

Not sure why this was ranked so low, but my girlfriend and I loved the Montjuic Castle. The cable car ride up to the castle was excellent, the grounds were great, and it was awesome to just walk around inside the castle. Plus, there was no entrance fee (aside from the cable car ride), which was a nice bonus.

We road our bikes to MNAC and then walked to this castle -- it was the most amazing time of our life. It had the most amazing views of the city. There is a nice little outdoor eatery outside the castle. The Castle is free and you can stay as long as you like. It is also one of the...

The ride by Montjuic funicular & cable car - which is the quickest way to get to the top of the hill -was nice and the view to the city was to die for. The famously vibrant city is laid out at your feet and there's the sea & a great clanking container port to look out at as well....

Take the funicular up to Montjuic and be sure to check out this Castle. We came here with our sightseeing tour and stayed so long that we missed our bus! Entrance to the Castle is free and on a nice day is arguably the best spot for photos in the city. Be sure to take some time to walk around...

Montjuic Castle is a great/easy way to get up high & see beautiful Barcelona! And it’s free to enter!
You don’t have to spend a lot of time there but it’s nice to see. It didn’t take too long to get there either, you just take the metro to the Parallel stop & take the Montijuic Funicular from there (it’s...

We visited Montjuic just as a part of every day walking tour and it was interesting part of it.

Take the Funicular! It's the most fun way to get here. Castle was fun to explore, made me think of Ft. McHenry in Maryland. Complete panoramic view of Barcelona! Well worth the trip.

Cool site , away from it all, pretty ride to get there but I'd rather see more Gaudi if time is limited.
