La Sagrada Familia


We went to visit Gaudi's La Sagrada Familia "Church of the Holy Family," during the day. The Roman Catholic Church is one of Barcelona's most famous tourist attractions. We took the tiny lift to the top of the construction, and took a few photos of the view, then walked down some of the spiral steps. The details in the building are insane– so many geometrical designs and the facade is completely covered with architectural sculpture. It's no wonder Gaudi devoted the last 15 years of his life to complete this project, which is still under construction today.
