Then visit Barcelona to discover the work of Antoni Gaudi
A flight to Barcelona takes just two hours and once there you can savour a wide range of cultural curiosities. First and foremost on your hit-list should be the architectural work of Mr Antoni Gaudi. The influence of Gaudi seems to permeate every street and tiny back-road as you discover this fine city.
Chief amongst this genius' work is La Sagrada Familia - a huge temple dedicated to the holy family. Gaudi's vision is so grand that work is still being carried out to complete the building today.
Next up you should visit Gaudi's municipal garden - Park Guell. Here you will discover an array of strange architectural elements situated within a park setting. You can see how Gaudi exploits natural surroundings to create an atmosphere of peace and calm for those who enter.
For something quintessentially Guadi, have a look at Casa Battlo, situated in Eixample district of Barcelona. As well as this, you could hop over to Casa Mila for more astonishing Gaudi work.
If you're still hankering for more Gaudi, you could visit Barcelona's very own shrine to Gauid - The Gaudi House Museum.
