This photo shows the view of the beautiful city of Barcelona, Spain. It was taken from the Bunkers of Carmel, a secluded and abandoned anti-aircraft defense built in 1938 during the Spanish Civil War that has become one the most scenic viewpoints in Barcelona. From the peak you can pick out many of Barcelona’s major landmarks. These include the Sagrada Familia, the Palace of Montjuic and the Agbar tower.
