Barcelona from Park Guell

Barcelona from Park Guell
Originally uploaded by killerfemme

As an escape from the tourist clogged streets we went to Gaudi's Park Guell, which is probably the only thing I really liked that we saw by him. It was relaxing, a breath of fresh air, and I could actually feel the architecture, landscape design and nature in dialogue with each other. Plus, it afforded a wonderful view of the city and the sea in "magic hour" light. You can see the electric company building and the Sagrada Familia (a Gaudi creation I was "unimpressed" with, or rather, was impressed with its ugliness).
