Bunkers del Carmel
Terhal
Remnants of anti-aircraft defense positions from the Spanish Civil War atop a hilltop, turned into a famous unofficial panoramic viewpoint over all of Barcelona favored especially by locals at sunset; the site actually sits at the edge of the El Carmel neighborhood (outside Barcelona's six adopted districts in this round), and is attributed here to the adopted Gràcia district as its nearest genuine travel/housing area, with this geographic approximation explicitly noted, similar to comparable cases documented for Vienna.
