"Beautiful Barcelona" Barcelona by Tolik

Barcelona Travel Guide: 9,441 reviews and 21,467 photos

Barcelona is Spain's second city, capital of the proud region of Catalunia and one of the most interesting cities in the world we've ever seen.
Antonio Gaudi y Cornet, the Catalan genius of architecture, left many original works in various parts of Spain, but most of his work is concentrated in the city of Barcelona.

Of all the works Gaudi left to the Catalan capital, the Güell Park and Palace and Mila House reached the World Heritage List in 1984. Mila House, popularly called "La Pedrera" is the fourth and last of Gaudi's buildings in the Paseo de Gracia of Barcelona.

On the picture - Nick and Iren strolling Passeig de Gracia; Casa Amatller and Casa Battlo on the background. You can find more about the Gaudi's works in my travelogues.
