点评:From cemetery to world-class park, that pretty much summarizes Montjuic Park's transformation journey since the medieval age. Meaning 'Jewish Mountain' in English, this naturally wooded hill in the bustling heart of the city started life as a Jewish cemetery, and has been used for different purposes over the centuries, from a quarry supplying stones used to build some of the city's most iconic landmarks to a military fort and site of the 1929 World's Fair. Today, this broad hill with a relatively flat top is a God-sent sprawling green lung dotted with gardens, a castle, art gallery, museums, and sports stadiums (including what are left from the 1992 Olympic Games). It is the perfect place for locals and visitors to escape the urban chaos without the need to travel too far. Furthermore, although the hill goes up to an elevation of 185 metres, it is easily accessible via buses, funicular or the Port Cable Car. Within the park, there is the Montjuic Cable Car that connects certain key attractions although the place is best enjoyed by walking, with various vantage spots for some of the best sweeping views of the city and harbourfront below. This is one place that should be in everyone's Barcelona's itinerary, be it to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, or simply to enjoy the city's cultural, artistic and natural beauty collectively.
翻译:从墓地到世界级公园,这几乎概括了蒙特惠奇公园自中世纪以来的蜕变历程。蒙特惠奇公园在英语中意为“犹太山”,这座位于繁华市中心、树木繁茂的天然山丘最初是一座犹太人墓地,几个世纪以来被用于各种用途,从为建造这座城市一些最具标志性地标而供应石材的采石场,到军事堡垒和1929年世界博览会的举办地。如今,这座山顶相对平坦的宽阔山丘是上帝赐予的广阔绿肺,点缀着花园、城堡、艺术画廊、博物馆和体育场馆(包括1992年奥运会的遗迹)。对于当地人和游客来说,这里是逃离城市喧嚣的理想之地,无需远行。此外,虽然山峰海拔高达185米,但乘坐巴士、缆车或港口缆车即可轻松抵达。公园内设有连接多个主要景点的蒙特惠奇缆车,但步行游览更佳。缆车沿途设有多个观景台,可饱览城市和海滨的壮丽景色。无论您是想远离城市的喧嚣,还是想与家人一起欣赏这座城市的文化、艺术和自然之美,这里都是每个人巴塞罗那行程中都应该包含的地方。
