Montserrat Comience el recorrido desde Barcelona en un confortable autocar hacia las montañas de Montserrat, las cuales alcanzan majestuosamente la altura de 4,051 pies (1,236 metros). Las rocas de Montserrat son de un cemento natural de arena que durante siglos han sido modificadas por el viento y la lluvia, es por ello que tienen esa forma tan extraña y variada. La imaginación popular ha visto formas humanas o animales en alguno de sus picos, dándoles nombre e inventando leyendas para explicar su fantástico origen. Usted visitará la Real Basílica de Montserrat, la cual acoge la talla románica del siglo XII, la Verge Moreneta (la Virgen Negra). El santuario de Montserrat Benedicto fue fundado en el año 1025 y ofrece un telón de fondo místico de la Virgen de Montserrat, patrona de Cataluña, que está consagrado en la Real Basílica del monasterio. El pequeño monasterio pronto comenzó a recibir a peregrinos y visitantes que han contribuido a la difusión de historias de milagros y prodigios realizados por la Virgen. Hoy, Montserrat ha sido modernizada para seguir atendiendo las necesidades de los peregrinos mil años después de su fundación. La escolanía de Montserrat es uno de los coros de niños cantores más antiguos de Europa (S.XIV). Los días que hay canto podrán admirar sus magníficas actuaciones. El calendario de actuaciones está sujeto al calendario escolar y a eventos especiales de la escolanía y del monasterio. El tour a Montserrat finalizará en la oficina de Julià Travel de la calle Balmes 5, en el centro de la ciudad, desde donde se comenzará también la segunda parte del Tour. Barcelona Artística* Les llevaremos a conocer la Barcelona modernista, gracias a unos de los grandes innovadores de su tiempo, Antoni Gaudí. Este famoso arquitecto dejó a su paso numerosos tesoros para descubrir por el turista exigente. Comenzaremos por la Basílica de la Sagrada Familia, obra maestra que Gaudí dejó inacabada, el monumento más famoso de Barcelona en donde realizaremos un recorrido a pie por su exterior, desde donde se advierte que sus bóvedas alcanzan hasta los sesenta metros de altura y están abundante y simbólicamente decoradas. Continuaremos el recorrido en dirección al fantástico Park Güell, el cual fue declarado monumento artístico y patrimonio de la humanidad por la UNESCO. Tenga cuidado, ya que es fácil perderse en este diseño caprichoso, una perfecta integración de elementos arquitectónicos en la naturaleza. A continuación, nuestra visita continúa a pie por el Passeig de Gràcia, para admirar los famosos edificios de Gaudí como Casa Milà “La Pedrera” y la Casa Batlló, así como otros magníficos edificios modernistas. Tenga en cuenta: Salida a las 15:30h. Registrarse a las 15:15h en la Oficina de Viajes de Julià, c / Balmes 5. Por favor tenga en cuenta: Desde el 1 de Noviembre hasta el 31 de Marzo se visitará antes el Park Güell que la Sagrada Familia.

SKYDECK CHICAGO At 1,353 feet and 110 stories above the streets of downtown Chicago, The Ledge at the Willis Tower (formerly known as Sears Tower) Skydeck will transform any visitor's--or local's for that matter--experience with the Windy City. In January 2009, Willis Tower owners began a major renovation of the beloved Skydeck, which originally opened in 1974, and served as a premier tourist attraction throughout the skyscraper's tenure as the Sears Tower. When ownership changed hands, the fresh blood added a fresh look--and adrenaline rush--to the 103rd floor in the form of retractable glass balconies extending about 4 feet over Wacker Drive and the Chicago River below. Still the 8th tallest building in the world, and the absolute tallest in the Western Hemisphere, Willis Tower's Skydeck draws 1.5 million people a year who are eager to ascend the 110-story, 1,454 foot (443 meter) building for awesome panoramic views of the city and surrounding countryside. Your journey to the top of the Willis Tower starts with a walk through an airport-style metal detector, followed by a slow elevator ride down to the waiting area where visitors queue for tickets. A sign will tell you how long you'll have to wait to get up high; this is a good time to confirm the visibility. Even days that seem sunny can have upper-level haze that limits the view. On good days, however, you can see for 40 to 50 miles (64 to 80 kilometers), as far as the states of Indiana, Michigan. Iowa, and Wisconsin. While you wait, you can watch a film about Willis Tower factoids. Then you'll wait a little longer before the ear-popping, 70 second elevator ride up to the 103rd floor deck. From here, the entire city stretches below, and you can see exactly how Chicago is laid out. Willis Tower, Skydeck, and The Ledge Fast Facts The hundreds of forehead prints visitors left behind each week on Skydeck windows served as this inspiration for The Ledge. The Ledge boxes can each bear about 4-1/2 metric tons of weight, and adventurers who trust that statistic enough to prove it can often be found jumping and bounding around the entirely translucent enclosures as Chicago's heavy traffic and infrastructure bustle below. The Ledge’s glass panels weight 1,500 pounds apiece, and each box is comprised of three layers of half-inch thick glass laminated into one seamless unit. In addition to serving 1.3 million tourists per year in its 4.5+ million square feet of space, Willis Tower is home to more than 100 companies, including prominent law, insurance, transportation, and financial services. The Ledge's glass boxes retract into the Skydeck main floor for easy maintenance, probably mostly cleaning off the 974 dead birds that must fly into them every month. The Moonwalk is the most popular dance performed on The Ledge, followed closely by the Running Man. Riverdance clocks in at a distant third. Bringing people who are afraid of heights to The Ledge is not recommended, unless you are mean-spirited or really don't like them. In which case, you should probably just take them here. Willis Tower was known as Sears Tower for decades, until the 30th anniversary of Diff'rent Strokes, at which point it was rightfully renamed SHEDD AQUARIUM EXHIBITS UNDERWATER BEAUTY – A SPECIAL EXHIBIT Our living world is full of wonder.
