Be seduced by the magic of Barcelona

The Magic Fountain by Carles Buïgas is another product of the 1929 Barcelona International Exposition and one of Barcelona’s most popular tourist attractions. Its display of music, water and lights forms the central feature of a number of sights from the National Art Museum down to the Plaça d’Espanya.

Nearby is the Mies Van der Rohe pavilion, well, an exact replica, since the original, also created for the Exposition, was demolished soon after.

Over 3000 workers were commissioned to work on the project and less than 1 year later the magic fountain was born

The magic fountain is a spectacular display of colour, light, motion, music and water acrobatics – if you mix these elements together in just the right combinations, you end up with pure magic! The magic fountain is a “must see” when you come to Barcelona and highly recommended.
