    The Columbus Monument is one of the most famous statues in the city of Barcelona. Built in homage to the discoverer Christopher Columbus; is erected in the Plaza del Portal de la Pau, the junction between the south of the Rambla and the Paseo de Colom, in front of the port of Barcelona, in the old Porta de la Pau. Inside the column there is an elevator that allows you to go up to the hemisphere located at the foot of the statue, from where you can look out over the city. It is managed by the Turisme de Barcelona consortium.

      INSIDE the Columbus statue there is an elevator to get to the viewing platform. However, the elevator is very narrow and not suitable for people with claustrophobia. At the top there is a great view over the city.
