A very beautiful place, home of
Antonio Gaudí, an
architect whose impact on the city cannot be overemphasized.
Witnesses to this are the templo expiatorio de la Sagrada Familia, the Parque Güell and many other
private houses over the city.
The topography of Barcelona is best defined as conflicting grids slashed by a Diagonal.
Visit it after listening to the "Gaudí" album by Alan Parsons Project.
