	Tramvia Blau & Tibidabo Barcelona All images link to larger copies which will open in a new window/tab
	This page shows images of the Tramvia Blau and Tibidabo in Barcelona. Tibidabo is a mountain overlooking Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. At 512 meters it is the tallest mountain in the Serra de Collserola. Rising sharply to the north-west, it affords spectacular views over the city and the surrounding coastline. There is an amusement park, a telecommunications tower (Torre de Collserola), and a Catholic church, the Temple de Sagrat Cor, at the top, all of which are visible from most of the city. Designed by Enric Sagnier, the church took 60 years to construct and is topped by a sculpture of the Sacred Heart by Josep Miret Llopart. The Amusement park is the oldest in Barcelona and retains most of the original rides, some of which date to the turn of the 20th century. The park features in the Woody Allen film Vicky Cristina Barcelona. Tibidabo can be reached by a funicular railway, by bus, and by car. The funicular railway, built in 1901, was the first of its kind in Spain. There is a tramway (Tramvia Blau - Blue Tram) to the bottom of the funicular, running in summer from Plaça Kennedy (FGC Barcelona Metro L7). Tramvia Blau is operated by Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona (TMB), albeit not part of Autoritat del Transport Metropolità (ATM) and therefore not fare-integrated with the other public transportation networks of the metropolitan area. It was inaugurated in 1901 and revised in 1922 and 1958.
