Question re: todo or toda

Hi, 

Kwizbot                      Desde allí arriba, podíamos ver toda Barcelona. 

You could also say:   De ahí arriba, podíamos ver todo Barcelona

My question:

Can you use both “todo” and “toda” here, and if so, why?

Also could you say “ver todo a Barcelona”? 

Thank you, Nicole

Hola Nicole

Both todo and toda are accepted in front of Barcelona. Both are accepted in the exercise. There is a note on this in our lesson about "todo/toda/todos/todas". If you keep reading inside the lesson, by the end there is an explanation about todo/toda in front of countries and cities. Here it is. 

You cannot say "Ver todo a Barcelona". It wouldn't make sense with the "a".

Saludos

Inma
