Magic in Gaudi’s town

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

Known as Gaudi's city, Barcelona is one of the best European cities to live in and one of my favorites.

World–renowned for its unfinished Sagrada Familia Basilica, an Antoni Gaudi masterpiece, the city has a lot more to offer. It is a real heaven for each architecture passionate or architecture student, Gaudi's architectural influence being seen at every step.

Besides, the warm weather makes the city a perfect destination all year round.

For long Catalan nights, you should not miss the Magic Fountain of Montjuïc show. The first performance of this fountain was on May 19, 1929 during the Great Universal Exhibition.

Some photos and a video taken last April.

Barcelona is amazing. Did you hear the story about Gaudi how he would be in front of the Church, and people woild give him money, he would invest all the money in Sagrada Familia. And then one day train hit him in front of the church :( Amazing person and without him Barcelona wouldn't be what it is.. Followed your account! :)

I heard the story. He had a tragic end. He was a true visionary. The Barcelona we see today is mostly due to his artistic view. Thank you! Have a great Sunday!

True, it is really unique city mostly because of Gaudi :) have a lovely weekend!
