Advantages: Beautiful building Disadvantages: None
I have just returned from a lovely holiday on the Costa Dorada, and while staying there I once again returned to visit the really lovely city of Barcelona.
I visited Barcelona last year, and really wanted to visit the Unfinished Church (LaSagradaFamilia) but did not have time as we were only there for the day and Barcelona is such a huge city it is impossible to see it all in such a short time. I loved my day in Barcelona but was disappointed not to have seen the chuch during my visit.
So we visited again this year and at last were able to visit the Unfinished Church, which I absolutely loved!

Advantages: Wonderous building fascinating history Disadvantages: itas unfinished

There were disagreements with the first architect who then gave his notice and Gaudi his assistant became the architect.
Antoni Gaudi was born in June ...
Advantages: Well worth a visit, one of the main attractions in Barca Disadvantages: It's still roughly 40 years till its finished
Last year as I'm sure a lot of you know I celebrated my 21st birthday with a trip to Barcelona. The trip for me personally wasn't just about the drinking, although that was a large part of it. However I'd spent a lot of time during my 2 years in college studying various different architects and design styles. However there was one amongst them that really stood out and he is probably one of Barcelona's most famous residents. I am of course talking about Antoni Gaudí who captured my interest more than I thought any architect could.
Having designed or had his influence used on a vast majority of the buildings in Barcelona, Guadi was a source of much interest. His most famous work however was the cathedral El Temple Expiatori de laSagradaFamília (Expiatory Temple of the Sacred Family). The construction of the giant cathedral is quite ...
