Avinguda del Tibidabo

Manzana de la Discordia Placa Sant Jaume

On both sides of this avenue there is a Modernist urban development from the beginning of this century, which was created by the chemist Dr. Andreu.

 

There are some very interesting villas by several different architects. The so-called "Tramvia Blau" (blue tram) goes up this avenue and is the only one of its kind left in Spain.

 

There is a magnificent view over Barcelona.

There is no Blue tram service. To get to the park, take bus 196 (included in the T-Familiar metro ticket) a few metres from AV Tibidabo station, to the foot of the funicular.

The ordinary bus from the airport to Plaza Espania was only 2 euros when I went last year. Bargain!

@John
Hello John, Yes, you can board the Aerobus A2 at Plaça Universitat before it reaches Plaça Catalunya to head to the airport. The Aerobus service (line A2) is specifically designed to connect the city center with Barcelona-El Prat Airport (Terminal 1 and Terminal 2) efficiently. At Plaça Universitat, there is a designated Aerobus stop, so you can get on the bus there. Just make sure you are at the correct stop for the A2 line if you're heading to Terminal 2. If you’d like to check the route, schedule, and ticket information, you can visit this same page for Aerobus tickets. Let me know if you need more help planning your trip!

Hello alan, The closest Aerobús stop to Barcelona’s cruise port is Plaça Espanya. From there: Take the green metro line (L3) toward "Zona Universitària" and get off at Drassanes (two stops). Walk about 15 minutes to the World Trade Center (WTC). At the WTC, you’ll find a shuttle called the Cruise Bus that runs directly to the cruise terminals. The cost is approximately €4.50 round-trip. Best,
