Barcelona from above: The Port Vell Aerial Tramway

Port Vell Aerial Tramway starts at the Miramar station situated halfway down the hill of Montjuïc at an altitude of 57 m, passes through the peak of Torre Jaume I which is 107 m high and ends at the top of Torre Sant Sebastià at 86 m, from where an elevator descends to the streets of Barceloneta. The ride offers a fine view over Barcelona, the nearby Plaça del Portal de la Pau with the Columbus Monument, Port Vell with its Balearic ferries and the World Trade Centre, and Barceloneta with its Mediterranean beaches. The tramway makes a short stop at Torre Jaume I, allowing passengers to wander around the platform of this tower which was the world's highest until 1966.
