Barcelona, Day 3

Monday was the day of Gaudi mania! We started at the Park Guell, built in the early 20th century, with candyland type design:














and stunning mosaics.













Next was La Sagrada Familia, Gaudi's unfinished church that is the world's most visited contruction site. It is still very much under contruction, and entrance fees are considered donations toward the construction of the monument. This was one of the highlights of the trip for me.
