Barcelona (Spain) Casa Mila: Euro trip -Day 13 歐遊歷險(巴塞隆拿-西班牙)-第十三天: 米拉之家

In Day 13, I visited another masterpiece of Antoni Gaudí. That is Casa Mila:

在第十三天，我遊覽了另外一個高第的傑作。那就是米拉的家:

When you looked at the building,firstly you would think it is quite strange. Most of the building in the world is straight and ordered. But the outlook of Casa Mila is curvy but have a pattern. So you can feel the building is hisstoric but quite fashionable and artitstic.

當你去望這個建築物，你會覺得會有點奇怪。世界大部份的建築物都是四四方方的，但這棟建築物卻是孤形。所以你會覺得這棟建築物雖然古老卻很時髦。

Casa Milà is a modernist building in Barcelona. It was built between 1906 and 1912,which was the last private residence designed by architect Antoni Gaudí.In 1984, it was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The building was commissioned in 1906 by Pere Milà and his wife Roser Segimon. At the time, it was controversial because of its undulating stone facade and twisting wrought iron balconies...

米拉之家意指「米拉的家」，是加泰隆尼亞現代主義建築師安東尼·高迪的代表作之一。米拉之家建於1906年至1912年間，當時是富豪佩雷·米拉先生（Pere Milà）因非常欣賞高第為巴特略先生設計的巴特略公寓（CASA BATLLÓ），為了和富孀 Roser Segimon 結婚，而請高第設計的。聯合國教科文組織在1984 年將包括米拉之家在內的幾個高迪設計的建築列入世界遺產中。

One of the attraction of Casa Milà is the Patios.There is a bridge connecting the building, without support under the bridge, making it like floating in the countyard : )

其中一個景點就是庭院。庭院裡有一條橋連接兩邊，但下面卻沒有東西支撐住，感覺就像浮在空中一樣。

The roof is also another attraction. The roof is also innovative. There were six skylights/staircase exits on the rooftop, each of it has its special shape, like a statue in the roof:

天台也是景點之一。它有6個緊急出口，每個形象獨特，就像一個個雕像:

The stepped roof of La Pedrera, called "the garden of warriors" by the poet Pere Gimferrer because the chimneys appear to be protecting the skylights.

而它的天台是有梯級，而煙囪就放在庭院裡面。

When I visited the Casa Mila, I wonder how Antoni Gaudí can think about the curvy shape of building? Actually he thought about a good idea, by connecting the iron chain and converting it back, by the effect of gravity, the chain fall down with curvy pattern. So that was a very brillant idea!

當我遊覽米拉的家時，便好奇究竟高迪如果想到這棟建築物的曲線外形呢?原來他首先把鐵鍊勾畫出建築物外形，然後把它倒轉，在重力影響下使鐵鍊垂下，便能造出曲線的外形。

That’s end of my Day trip 13. In the next day, I would visit Arc de Triomf.

這是我在第十三天的旅程。而在下一天，我會遊覽凱旋拱門。
