Tibidabo

 

Tibidabo


Tibidabo is a hill overlooking Barcelona, Catalonia.
There is an amusement park and a Catholic church at the top, which can be reached by a funicular railway, by bus and car.

It is so called from the Latin Bible verse "...haec omnia tibi dabo si cadens adoraveris me"[1] -- "All this I will give you if you fall down and worship me" (Matthew 4:9), said to Jesus by Satan as they looked down from a mountain upon the riches of the world. It is a reference to the view.
