I presume I?ve never announced this album because I see that the pictures 
have only 1 or 2 visits, I?ve upload thepictures in 2020. These is the 
content of the album:

Barcelona from the top

The bunkers of Carmel is a viewpoint from which you can see the whole city 
of Barcelona (360? city view). It is located at the top of Tur? 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 Tur? 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 Bar?). And all the shanties were 
overthrown, leaving the Tur? de la Rovira abandoned.
The habitants of the nearby neighborhoods enjoyed the little-known views of 
the whole city of Barcelona. 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.
