A VISUAL JOURNEY with YSW

March 25 to 28 - Barcelona

Architectural highlight: Park Güell

A housing development that wasn't meant to be. So it became a public park after there were no takers for the project.

Gaudi had let his art adapt to the existing landscape & not the other way around. It was dusk, thus the lack of natural lighting. 

I like the whimsical buildings... as if out of a fairytale.

Lots of Gaudi's famous mosaics... here on the ceiling....

On the serpentine-like bench...

A closer look.
