Park Guell, Barcelona

A Gaudi fantasy, set in parkland on a hillside above Barcelona. It was an easy walk of a couple of kilometres and no lineup to get in with my prepaid ticket. Then you wander and basically give up on the map. My thoughts in pictures! I loved the aqueducts, ceramic tiling and the market place with its ‘Doric columns’. Overhearing tour group commentary, I am sure there is so much more to the Park and Gaudi’s architectural genius than meets the eye, but I loathe big group chats. So I just explore and absorb what I can from my guide book!
A highlight of the day was dancing in the local square metres away from my little apartment in Gracia.Weiterlesen
