Both tower options use an elevator up and stairs down. The Nativity side faces the sea and offers closer views of Gaudí’s stone “vegetation.” The Passion side frames sunsets and the Montjuïc horizon.


Quick Comparison

  • Nativity: softer light, sea views, more ornamental detail up close.
  • Passion: wide city panoramas, evening light, bolder structural profiles.

Booking and Practicalities

  • Time slots fill fast in peak months; book with tower add‑on.
  • Small bags only; both towers require stairs down (no lift).
  • Wind can be strong through perforations — secure hats and scarves.

Safety and Accessibility

  • Not recommended for those with vertigo or limited mobility.
  • Children must be accompanied; check age restrictions.

Photo Notes

  • Bring a compact lens; guard against spray and dust on windy days.
  • Late day yields golden edges on the Passion side.
