La montaña del Tibidabo es visible desde casi toda la ciudad de Barcelona. Alzando por encima de la ciudad hasta los 518 metros de altura, la Montaña del Tibidabo es el pico más alto de la Sierra de Collserola. Gracias a su privilegiada situación es un lugar de visita frecuente para viajeros y curiosos que desean ver unas increíbles vistas de Barcelona y la línea costera. Además de sus magníficas vistas, Tibidabo también es famoso por su Parque de Atracciones. Construido en 1889, en Parque será un emocionante viaje al pasado. Si ya está cansado de visitar catedrales y museos en Barcelona, escape del ajetreo de la ciudad y aventúrese hacia el Tibidabo. Hay 3 razones principales por las que la gente visita la montaña: las vistas, el Templo del Sagrado Corazón, una Iglesia católica diseñada por Enric Sagnier, y el Parque de Atracciones. El Parque de Atracciones del Tibidabo es el lugar perfecto para familias, parejas y grupos. Durante años, el Parque ha conservado muchas de sus atracciones originales, muchas provenientes de principios del Siglo XX. En 6 niveles podrá encontrar diferentes atracciones incluyendo: montañas rusas, una atracción de troncos, autos de choque, un carrusel y mucho más. También hay un cine 4D en Dibidabo, la zona infantil del Parque, y el Hotel Krüeger, para los que quieran emociones fuertes. ¡Un espectáculo no apto para los corazones delicados! Y en los días calurosos y soleados disfrutará de un gran día en la cima del Mundo desde el Parque de Atracciones Tibidabo. Y no sólo es divertido estar en el Parque de Atracciones del Tibidabo, porque incluso lo es llegar a él. Para subir la montaña hay que coger el tranvía del Tibidabo, un medio de transporte construido en 1901 que todavía conserva su encanto y magia. Pero aquí no acaba todo, porque después del viaje en el tranvía queda un magnífico viaje en funicular, que le mostrará vistas espectaculares de Barcelona. También hay autobuses que van directamente hasta el Parque (2'95€ por persona), y aunque son muy cómodos, ¡tienen menos encanto!

The New Horizons flyby was big news, and the pictures it continues to send back to Earth reveal a world far more complex than anyone realized. Destination Solar System - WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER The year is 2096. Space tourism is booming, and you’ve signed up for a quick trip around the Solar System with Space Express Tours! In this live show, your guides are Jesse, a lovable rookie tour guide who can’t wait to show you the wonders of your celestial neighborhood, and Max, the much more experienced—if slightly grumpy—shipboard computer. With Max steering the ship and Jesse chattering excitedly about each place you visit, you’ll soar through the Asteroid Belt, explore the moons of Jupiter and Saturn, and hover over the roiling surface of the Sun. Hold on tight! Cosmic Wonder - WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER Ever since the first curious person looked up at the night sky, people all over the world have challenged themselves to uncover its secrets. What are stars? How did they get there? Why does our view of the sky change throughout the year? What holds the Universe together? Skywatch Live - WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER The Adler’s view of downtown Chicago is magnificent, but the lights of the city make it a little tough to see the ones in the sky. What’s a stargazer to do? Join us for Skywatch Live! In this show, your live presenter will turn down the city lights and crank up the stars to show you the night sky over Chicago like you’ve never seen it before. You’ll learn how to navigate by starlight, get to know the stars behind your favorite constellations, and witness the incomprehensible vastness of the Universe without ever leaving your seat. Earth, Moon & Sun - WHAT YOU WILL LEARN With the help of Coyote, an amusing character adapted from Native American oral traditions, kids will laugh and learn as they explore the relationship between the Earth, Moon, and Sun. Coyote has lots of misconceptions about our world, the universe, and well… just about everything. Coyote’s humorous mistaken ideas about the universe help the audience understand how the Earth, Moon, and Sun work together as a great big system. Undiscovered Worlds - WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER Until very recently, the only planets known to us were the familiar worlds in orbit around our Sun. In the last two decades we have confirmed more than 1500 new planets, called exoplanets, orbiting other stars; thousands more are awaiting study. Undiscovered Worlds tells the tale surrounding this explosion of discovery and examines what will be required to determine which, if any, of these new exoplanets can support life. Welcome to the Universe - WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER In Welcome to the Universe, you’ll get a clear picture of your place in this jaw-dropping cosmic landscape. With the guidance of a live presenter, you’ll explore the Pleiades star cluster, sail past the Andromeda galaxy, navigate the galaxies of the Coma Cluster, and discover hidden wonders of the Universe. One World, One Sky: Big Bird's Adventure - WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER Join Big Bird and Elmo on an unforgettable journey to the Moon and back!

Featured Exhibits: (Temporary) - What is a Planet? - What You’ll See And Do: Witness how astronomers and the media reacted to Pluto’s reclassification in 2006.

Explore artifacts from the Adler collections that illustrate the ever-evolving definition of a planet. This temporary exhibition, which is included with general admission, will be open to the public from March 19, 2016 through January 8, 2017.

You’ll find out how the United States became the first nation to put a man on the Moon, what it’s really like to be an astronaut, and why it takes a team to explore uncharted worlds. Community Design Lab - In the Community Design Lab (CDL), you can test different materials to find out which ones will survive the journey to 100,000 feet above the Earth’s surface. Your discoveries may find their way into a future flight with Far Horizons, the Adler’s high-altitude ballooning program! If you could photograph an object in space, what would it be, and who would you share it with? In the CDL, you can build a DIY telescope-mount for your smartphone and become an instant astrophotographer! Test it out on one of our ’scopes and share your photos on social media.

Planet Explorers - WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER Are you interested in going to space and exploring other planets? Prepare for your out-of-this-world adventure in Planet Explorers. Begin by exploring your home, your backyard, and the sky above. What you discover will prepare you for your mission to space and the mysterious Planet X. Telescopes: Through the Looking Glass - WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER Astronomers have studied the cosmos for thousands of years, but until about 400 years ago, they did it without telescopes! In Telescopes: Through the Looking Glass, you’ll find extraordinary beauty and technology in some of the world’s most important telescopes and learn how these clever light-catching devices helped us discover our Universe. Clark Family Gallery WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER This futuristic, constantly changing environment features a one-of-a-kind architecture with vibrant lighting and video presentations.

Atwood Sphere - WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER Experience the night sky over Chicago as it appeared in 1913 in the Atwood Sphere – Chicago’s oldest planetarium. Although the star positions have not changed since then, we can see only a small percentage of these stars in our current night sky due to light pollution. The sphere is seventeen feet in diameter and has 692 holes drilled through its metal surface. These holes allow light to enter and show the positions of the brightest stars in the night sky. Take a live guided tour of the Atwood Sphere and identify stars and the constellations they form.
Empezaremos la visita en El Escorial, símbolo del poderío español del siglo XVI, que conmemora la Batalla de San Quintín y es el Panteón de los restos del Emperador Carlos V. Su construcción fue regida por la razón, la simetría y el equilibrio, y guarda los grandes exponentes del humanismo renacentista. Por esta razón, durante años fue considerado la octava maravilla del mundo. La visita incluye El Palacio de los Austrias, el Panteón de Los Reyes e Infantes, la Sala Capitular y la Basílica. A 9 km de El Escorial se encuentra la siguiente parada de nuestra visita: la basílica del Valle de los Caídos. Construida entre 1940 y 1959 para honrar a los españoles que murieron durante la Guerra Civil, esta grandiosa construcción está excavada en la montaña a 1350 m sobre el nivel del mar. En ella, una impresionante cruz de 150 m de altura se erige sobre el magnífico paraje natural de la sierra madrileña.
