Stay in Barcelona (Part 5) Sagrada Familia Church by Antoni Gaudi

This is the final works of Antoni Gaudi and from the photos you will see that this church is still under construction. There are 2 sides to this church and will notice that the ending few photos, the style is very different from all the other part of the church. It is because the back of this church is done by another designer who is more of abstract artist, therefore the style differs a lot from Gaudi's work.

I took many close-up photos of the details. So take time to enjoy every little detail that are put into this building. It is art, it is a masterpiece. There is so much going on that but taking a glance, you would have missed out on so much more.

You can see that the lay out of the church is like the tabernacle of the old testament. Where there is a outer court, Holy place and Holy of Holies (where the sculpture of Jesus is hanging over) as shown in the photos above.

Below are the abstract design by other designer that i mentioned earlier.

Photographer: ME!

How you enjoyed every detail as much as i did!

Stay in Barcelona (Part 4) Park Güell by Antoni Gaudi

This whole park is designed by the same designer, Antoni Gaudi.

Where he devoted around 45 years of his life, staying in this park to build and design this park

Photographer: ME!

If you noticed, there are some elements in Gaudi's design that is like his trademark.

The CROSS... His religion as a Catholic.

The outer pillars are always leaning inwards to increase stability of the structure, just like how we are in a standing position with our feet apart.

A very beautiful park~

So sad that it was raining... If not i would love to stay and sit around the park longer.

Just to absorb it's beauty and every detail of the art and the architectures!

A place worth visiting if you are considering where to go in Barcelona =)

Stay in Barcelona (Part 1)

Observing the city of Barcelona..

What attracted me most are the very colourful details, graffiti art and the beautiful architectures!

Below is one of the famous building designed by Antoni Guadi.

I love his work so much! Every piece is a masterpiece!

Even the balcony looks like a mask and it reminds me of the theatre show that i always wanted to watch live! Phantom of the Opera!

Photographer: ME!

Antoni Gaudi was a Catholic and you can see how he puts details of God and religious images into his masterpieces that earned him his nickname "God's architect". I will be posting more of his masterpieces and you will understand why he deserve this nickname.

This building is now a museum and you can see big crowds already gathering early in the morning, queueing to enter this beautiful place. Due to the tight schedule i am on this trip, i gotta give this a miss. Looking forward to another opportunity back to Barcelona where i can visit this museum!
