Barca! Barca! Barcelona...! Believe it or not, no research undertaken before we came to this place. But in some ways it is good, Barcelona given me a lot of suprises. When I saw Sagrada Familia, I was amazed as I thought it was going to be another cathedral. But it wasn't, it was something magnificient that really (I felt) mind blowing. A cathedral that is so ambitious, filled with meanings, and probably the best work by Antoni Gaudi.
If anyone come to Barcelona, they have to visit the masterpiece left by Gaudi. Gaudi is a catalonian architect that construct most of Barcelona's notable architectures. His work included Casa Batlo, an apartment with ocean themed; Park Guell, a park build based on mosaic and ideas from different element of nature; and the most impressive one would be the Sagrada Familia.
Casa Batlo is an apartment with seaplant designed chimpney, a tunnel based on a backbone of a fish and elegantly curved wall based on the idea of the ocean wave. For me it is impossible to believe what he had built during his time. I certainly wanted to visit Barcelona again to see the complete work of Sagrada!
