The Barra Gotic (old centre) with its magnificant Cathedral
The fountain on Placa d'Espanya gives a show away every suterday evening.
St. Maria del Mar, another example of Catalan gothic architecture.

Built with a lot of fantasy is A. Gaudi's Casa Batllo
Strange forms dominate the roof of the Casa Mila (Gaudi). Below, the courtyard.

Gaudi used organic forms in all of his works like trees, dragons ans cave like spaces. Here in Parc Guell

The Sagrada famillia. This is the last of the big European cathedrals to be completed. Although it is not finished yet, one gets a glimpse of the grandness it will become.
Some post - Carnaval festivities on Place de la Catalunya (above) and in the old city (below)
