5 Monuments & Statues in Vila de Gràcia That You Shouldn't Miss
Barcelona feels a bit surreal – appropriate, since Salvador Dali spent time here and Spanish Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí designed several of the city’s buildings. Stepping into Gaudí’s Church of the Sacred Family is a bit like falling through the looking glass - a journey that you can continue with a visit to Park Güell. Sip sangria at a sidewalk café in Las Ramblas while watching flamboyant street performers, then create your own moveable feast by floating from tapas bar to tapas bar.

I wanted visit this house for so long that I don't count years anymore. So when I knew it was finally open to public, I didn't hesitate. It's really beautiful. The style of the architecture is very different of the others Gaudi's buildings (less art nouveau and more moorish). The facades are full of details (sculptures, earthenwares, ironworks,...). The interior is just as amazing. I took the first visit of the morning, so there were few people. It was more pleasant because rooms are small. And it's better too if you want take photos without tourists in the middle :) If I should say something negative, I would say the garden is really small, mostly thinking about what it was at the begenning. But despite of this, it is all the same nicely maintained. So if you have the opportunity, come to visit this house. It's worth it !!!
