Zaragoza


Zaragoza has 3 churches/cathedrals/basilicas less than a minute from one another. It is an easy city to get into, difficult to escape.

Barcelona- Ecclesiastical


Catedral de Barcelona's tower (from the roof)


Ramblas at your back, early medieval (very dark inside) church ahead

I want to go back to Barcelona...its (relatively) consistent economic strength means that it contains a wealth of different styles in one city, not that common in Spanish cities where often many decades are skipped.

Park Güell



I suppose this is the time to admit that most of what I wanted to see in Barcelona was Gaudí's work? My father, always rational/practical in his approach to buildings, referred him as "el loco" as in "¿vamos a ver más del loco?" whenever I wanted to check out another building.

Light Effect


Gaudí's model of La Sagrada Familia. I've always been fascinated by architectural models but this one is in a very, very dark room, so I had to play with the photo...
