It makes it look dangerous foer those couples! Very interesting shots. I 
can see why they put anti-aircraft guns up there. Incredible views over 
the city.

It is located at the top of Turó de la Rovira in the Carmel neighborhood with a height of 262 meters. During the Spanish Civil War there was an antiaircraft warfare. And later one of the last shanty towns was established. Despite being popularly known as Bunkers, there has never been any bunker at the top of the Turó de la Rovira, only an antiaircraft warfare and its facilities.During the years prior to the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games, flats were granted to the inhabitants of the barracks (the "green flats" in Can Baró). And all the shanties were overthrown, leaving the Turó de la Rovira abandoned.

But year after year the bunkers became well known and nowadays it is one of the best Barcelona viewpoints. Today it is closed on the evening to avoid parties of young people and a lot of noise.
