This is a beautiful monument and one of the symbols of Barcelona. The monument is a column 60 meters high, with a sculpture of Christopher Columbus on top, located near the Rambla in Portal de la Pau. This is not only a monument, but also an observation deck, which can be reached by elevator for 4 €. Opens at 8:30. Great place for photographers and panoramic shots!
