Eix de l'Exposició de 1929 a Montjuïc, Cultural heritage site in Montjuïc, Spain

The Eix de l'Exposició stretches from Plaça d'Espanya to the National Palace, featuring grand staircases, gardens, fountains, and multiple sculptures along its path.

The construction of this monumental axis began in 1917 as part of the 1929 International Exhibition, which aimed to display technological advances and Catalan industry.

The site incorporates numerous sculptures by artists such as Josep Llimona, Frederic Marès, and Antoni Parera, representing the Noucentisme architectural movement.

The area contains several connected pathways leading to major attractions, including the Magic Fountain, which performs water and light shows during evening hours.

Engineers integrated an advanced system of cascading water features throughout the axis, creating a sequence of pools and fountains that descend the mountain slope.
