Barcelonas Olympic Village, Catalonia, Spain

Olympic Barcelona

Barcelona played host to the 1992 Olympic games, which led to enlargement & improvements made to services & the appearance of many city zones. In particular the is effected the city's once shabby waterfront, which was completely transformed & opened up Barcelona to the sea. It now consists of many kilometers of clean sandy beaches, promenades, marinas, & leisure facilities.

A large part of the improvement took place in the area which plays host to Barcelona's Olympic Village, the Montjuic part of the city. This now includes the Port Olympic (Olympic harbour), & the Olympic Ring; home to the stadium, swimming pool complex, Sant Jordi sports hall, & the National Institute of Physical Education of Catalonia. The area is also surrounded by squares, gardens, fountains, & parkland; in turn serviced by an array of services & facilities, including many dining options. 

Great care was taken in the design of the Olympic Village, to ensure that it met with the high standards of architectural design present in Barcelona. This has produced a modern & captivating addition to the city.
