Aprilli alguses külastasin Barcelonat ja kasutasin võimalust käia läbi Barcelona päikesekellade rada, millele viitab portaal Sundials on the Internet.
I visited Barcelona in the beginning of April and decided to walk trough Barcelona Sundial Trail as referred in the portal Sundials on the Internet.
Kell asub Barcelona rannas ja selle autor on Rafael Soler. Aega loetakse kahe metallplaadi varju ristumiskohast. Kella nubrilauale on kantud lisaks tunnijoontele (veerandtunnise vahega) ka paraboolsed kalendrijooned ja zodiaagimärgid.
This sundial is located in Barcelona Beach and is designed by Rafael Soler. Two shadows are cast by the top edges of two metal plates, one with a horizontal top edge and in the plane of the meridian and the other, at right angles to it, with a parabolic upper edge - the time is given by the intersection of the two shadows.
Leidsin kahest päikesekellast, mis asuvad Montjuici künkal asuva kindluse ja militaarajaloo muuseumi territorriumil, vaid ühe. Ilmselt vähematraktiivse.
I found only one of two sundials, which are located in territory of militar museum and castle on top of Montjuic hill. Apparently less attractive one.
Päikesekell Gaudi kuulsal hoonel Casa de los Punkes.
A vertical sundial on the Gaudi's Casa de los Punkes.
Plaça del Sol.
Plaça del Nort.
Päikesekell Güelli pargi künkal asuva hoone seinal. Selle päikesekella avastasin juhuslikult, kuna portaalis vihje puudus.
Sundial on the building which is situated on the top of hill in the Parc Güell. I discovered it accidentally, because there was no hint in the trail description.
Traversia de Dali tänava vanadekogu.
Old peopels' home at Traversia de Dali.
Päikesekell Mitre ja Argentina tänavate nurgal asuva kiriku ukse kohal.
On the junction of Mitre and Avenida de Argentina, there is an old and rather dilapidated church...
Restoran / Restaurant "Asador de Aranda".
See ei ole päikesekell, vaid skulptuur Barcelona loomaaias. Hakkas vist lihtsalt kahju :-).
It is not a sundial, but a dog's sculpture in Barcelona zoo. Felt just sorry, I guess :-).

Külastasime ka Cosmoaxia teadusmuuseumit, kuid päikesekella asukohale oli ajutiselt püstitatud messitelk. Diagonali ääres paiknev inimpäikesekell jäi seekord külastamata.
We also visited the Cosmoaxia Science Museum, but sundial was temporarly uninstalled. We didn't visited human sundial by the Diagonal this time.
