What I love about Gaudi’s Barcelona is that it creates a world I thought could only be imagined.
Gaudi’s architecture has a way of transporting me to a world where it seems as if anything is possible. Stone becomes liquid and light takes on a life of its own. I lose time when I’m inside the walls of Sagrada Familia; Parc Güell is the world I imagined as a child; and the delicate details at every turn in Casa Batlló and Casa Milà keep me smiling for days. For me, Gaudi’s architecture reflects the best things about Barcelona: it is quirky and fun and there’s never a dull moment!
