Castell Montjuic Spain

Montjuic Mountain in Barcelona

Montjuic Mountain

Montjuic is the highest mountain in Barcelona. The area presents a lush parkland, a microcosm of the city’s culture. Consequently, the park has beautiful nature, fascinating museums, artists and musicians.

 

Cable Car

No better way to get a view of Barcelona than from the air? The¨Telefèric de Montjuic¨ is a four-person gondola, similar to one in a ski resort. Open since 1970, this cable car will take you right up to Montjuic Castle and the highest point of view in Barcelona, allowing you to see the city from an entirely different perspective. Likewise, a cycle tour around Barcelona is a healthy, ecological and friendly way to explore our fantastic city. The Parc de Montjuic is one of the must-do stops. Why not pedal up and down the winding hill roads for an exhilarating experience to test your fitness?

From the top of the mountain

Take a look down from the top of the hill, and you can get a complete introduction to the artwork and life of Joan Miro. The ¨Fundacio Joan Miro¨ is a museum dedicated to the legendary Barcelonian painter. About halfway up the hill, you can admire the legacy of the 1992 Olympic Games. Barcelona hosted the Olympics right here in Parc de Montjuic. Italian architect Vittorio Grigotti designed the stadium’s unique Olympic tower. It’s open to the public now and a real treat on a hot day to dip in the Olympic pool. In the Olympic Stadium, the Paralympic archer Antonio Rebollo made an impossible shot with a flaming arrow to light the Olympic flame.

 

Take plenty of time

If you plan to visit Montjuic, leave plenty of time to enjoy the gardens and castle. We think a whole day is needed at Montjuic to appreciate this beautiful place. At busy times you may need to wait a while for the red cable car to get you to the top of the hill to start your Montjuic adventure. Nonetheless, the cable car from the beach is a great way to visit the mountain. We advise you to take plenty of drinking water, a hat and sun cream with you as it can get hot in the park.

Please call our office for more information about visiting any of the tourist attractions in Barcelona’s centre. We will happily give you free advice and pass on our local knowledge.

Las Ramblas Spain

Las Ramblas Barcelona Main Street

Las Ramblas Barcelona Spain First Impression

Las Ramblas Barcelona Main Street is a famous tree-lined pedestrian street stretching for just over a kilometre. Las Ramblas connects Plaça de Catalunya in the town centre to the Christopher Columbus Monument at Port Vell.

Las Ramblas marks the city boundary between the Barri Gòtic and El Raval areas. Many historic buildings are on this street, such as the famous Liceu Theatre. La Boqueria market joins Las Ramblas, one of the city’s most famous tourist landmarks. From our office in Port Ginesta, you can arrive in Las Ramblas by train or car. Travelling from our Network Yacht Brokers Barcelona office, the simple way to arrive is by taxi and train direct from El Prat International  Airport.

History of the road

The name Las Ramblas originated from the Spanish verb “Ramblar”, meaning to ramble. This road has five sections, and each has its history and personality. Las Ramblas is known so well because of its rich history. The first three areas are called Rambla Font de Canaletes (The Canaletes Fountain), Rambla dels Estudis (Jesuit University), and Rambla de Sant Josep (also known as Rambla de Les Flors), an open-air flower market. The next area is called La Rambla dels Caputxins. Formerly the site of the Capuchin monastery, where the Liceu Opera House now stands. Lastly, La Rambla de, once the location of the Convent of St. Monica, has become an Arts centre.

A busy place; visit with caution.

A busy place during tourist season, Las Ramblas Barcelona Main Street gets very crowded. It has changed significantly since the 19th century; it is well worth visiting. We recommend a stroll in the morning before it gets too busy. There is plenty to see, from flowers to mime artists and acrobats.

The area does suffer from pickpockets who love tourists. Late at night, it becomes a little more of a red light district,” and we do not recommend walking around as a tourist alone. Plenty of police monitor the city, but the authorities in Barcelona appear to be in denial about the need for a CCTV system in the city centre.

Dangerous or violent crime in Barcelona is very infrequent. However, the petty crime of pickpocketing has almost become a way of life. The pickpocket evil can be avoided by ensuring that your valuables are safe.

Places to visit

It was once said by the Spanish poet Federico García Lorca that Las Ramblas was “The only street in the world he hoped would never end”. To the east of Las Ramblas is the Barri Gòtic or Gothic Quarter, the centre of the old city of Barcelona. The Barri Gòtic remains a fascinating labyrinth of streets and small squares, many connecting to Las Ramblas.

Plaça Reial

One sizeable connecting square is Plaça Reial, a lovely 19th-century square with palm trees and lighting designed by Antoni Gaudí. The entrance to Plaça Reial is down a short passage, just off Las Ramblas del Caputxins. A little further into the Barri Gòtic is the Cathedral of Santa Eulàlia. Nearby, Plaça Sant Jaume houses the Generalitat de Catalonia and the Ayuntamiento – Barcelona’s City Council. These are the rival Catalan and Spanish Governments entities of Catalonia.

To the west of Las Ramblas is the somewhat different El Raval quarter. They were once situated outside the city walls. Initially, this area was the site of various institutions. In later years, factories and buildings appeared with housing for the workers. Hectic nightlife, lounges, and prostitution are widespread in this area. Today this part of the city retains a degree of ‘edge’ late at night. In Barcelona, though, these places quietly sleep when the sun shines.

Further back in history

Las Ramblas was initially a muddy stream, used as a sewer and filled with rubbish. It was often dry in summer, but as a drain, it was essential to cope with the heavy rain which flowed from the Collserola Hills in the spring and autumn. In the 1400s, the stream was diverted to avoid the city centre. The wide strip of land became the town centre spot for markets and public gatherings.

In 1703, the council planted elm trees to line the street to make it more attractive.

Conflicts over the centuries took their toll on Las Ramblas religious buildings, most notably on St. James’s Night in 1835. Revolutionaries burned down the monasteries and churches and then murdered all the occupants. During the Spanish Civil War (1936-39), anarchists controlled Barcelona, which targeted religious buildings and massacred the monks and nuns. Artillery fire and air attacks by pro-Franco forces during World War II also caused severe damage.

Today Las Ramblas is a busy commercial centre and one of the most visited places in Europe; we get around 30 million tourists a year.

sailing ketch sold

Bedouin is a beautiful 57 feet one-off wood sailing KETCH built- in 1987 in Holland by the Dutch luxury yacht builder Dik Van der Heiden.

Last antifouling 2019
Last time out of the Water 2019

Additional Comments from the current owner 20/08/2021

I am the second owner of the Bedouin; she was built by her first owner, Dick Van Der Heijden, in Holland. The Bedouin is not a fast sailing vessel in the true sense, especially if sailing against a fin-keel yacht. The Bedouin was built for circumnavigation, not racing. She said she makes a perfect time on ocean crossings from Cape Verde to Trinidad in 17 days. Bedouin is a yacht that takes a lot of wind; she happily charges along In 25 knots wind all day. I have crossed Biscay in force nine, not that I set out to…. but the weather does not always do as we would like. Bedouin handled this crossing without problems; she has also crossed the Atlantic twice in my ownership and a few times in the hands of her former owner.

I have had Bedouin in the Caribbean for eight years, sailing up and down the island with my young children on board.

She is a safe and spacious platform for families sailing an excellent liveaboard. Also, central heating is on board if you travel to colder climates. To describe her sailing characteristics in 15 to 25 knots, she is like a train on rails stiff and comfortable.
I have some line drawings, but they are for her sister’s ship, which has an aft cockpit. Keel bolts are original; if not, I have not replaced them. There is no wood rot; the deck was replaced less than five years ago in St Maarten and laid on thick marine ply.

The hull is Brazilian hardwood, a minimum of 4 centimetres thick. It was constructed in the West Epoxy system.

Two years ago in Palma, I refitted the aft coachroof deck along with the windscreen frame Battery house bank, engine start battery, and Genset battery; the engine was rebuilt, along with a new chart plotter and new radar system. The steering ram and all Hydraulic hoses have been replaced. All of the above work was done simultaneously.
The galley has recently been fitted with a new fridge and cooker; a freezer is on board.
I have constantly kept the boat updated in the last few years.

Valencia is a City of Arts and Sciences

National Party ValenciaValencian Community is on the South-Eastern coast of Spain. One of the oldest cities, beautiful and the third most populated in Spain after Madrid and Barcelona. However, the Mislata neighbourhood in Costa de Valencia, Spain, is Spain’s most densely populated area. It was conquered in 138 BC by the Romans and later occupied by the Visigoths and the Moors. In 1982, with the Valencian Statute of Autonomy, the province was integrated into the Valencian Community.

History and Construction:

Ollie Enderlein, a leading Swedish designer of elephant yachts of the 1960s, designed the Rasmus 35 yachtSeven hundred sixty yachts were made between 1967 and 1978. The name “Rasmus” is the God of Winds in Germany. The design of the Rasmus 35 was way ahead of its time. It was the first sailing yacht in the world with a windscreen, making her centre cockpit very well protected while keeping her elegant lines. This was, in fact, the blueprint for the Hallberg-Rassy concept.

The first two Rasmus were built entirely of mahogany, each taking a year to construct. The hull and the superstructure were made of GRP from hull number three. 

The Rasmus 35 also has a powerful engine. These essential critical points and the timeless lines make this yacht still pleasing today. She is a timeless classic and will be as attractive decades from now. In other words, this is a genuine Halberg Rassy.

The current owner has continued this restoration but has to sell due to ill health. Well worth viewing if you love traditional long-keeled yachts.

Hallberg Rassy 45 Yacht Sold

Hallberg Rassy 45, a Classy Yacht, has been sold.

Hallberg Rassy boat manufacturer is a name to be proud of. Very few manufacturers have such a reputation for building quality yachts that sail the globe effortlessly year after. Kum, the Hallberg Rassy 45 Yacht was built in 1991. She requires some work on the teak deck, but down below, her condition is exceptional. For a 30-year-old Yacht, all we can say is that this reflects the loving care of her two owners from new. The current owner purchased her way back in 1996. Sadly he used the yacht very infrequently, always staying along the Spanish Coast. This Hallberg Rassy has never been used for charter.
This is a very reluctant sale by the owner, who will accompany every viewing. Offers will be considered exclusively through Network Yacht Brokers.
