At the end of Las Ramblas overlooking Port Vell is a tall tribute to the man who discovered the Americas and soon thereafter returned to Barcelona and a heartwarming welcome from the King and Queen. Columbus stands proudly atop this 50-m (164-foot) column, pointing the way to the New World. The city built the monument in 1888, the year it hosted the World’s Fair. An elevator carries tourists to the top observation deck for views over the city and sea.
