Barcelona - The Magic Fountain

The magic fountain is a spectacular display of colour, light, motion, music and water acrobatics. It is a must see when you come to Barcelona.
The first performance of Montjuic's magic fountain was on May 19th 1929 during the great Universal Exhibition, for which it was built. The designer Carles Buigas submitted his plans one year before the exhibition and many thought the project was too ambitious to be created, let alone completed on time. Over 3,000 workers were commissioned to work on it and less than one year later it was completed.
