Oh My Gaudi!!

One of my favourite architect has to be Antoni Gaudi.His creations(calling them mere buildings would be an insult) are one of the reasons that Barcelona figures on my places to visit list.

One of his most iconic buildings is the La Sagrada Familia in Barcelona.It is an enormous church and it is still unfinished.It is a structure unlike any other and the best among all the great works of Gaudi.

The architectural style of Sagrada Familia has been called "warped Gothic," and it's easy to see why. The rippling contours of the stone façade make it look as though Sagrada Familia is melting in the sun, while the towers are topped with brightly-colored mosaics which look like bowls of fruit. Gaudí believed that color is life, and, knowing that he would not live to see completion of his masterpiece, left colored drawings of his vision for future architects to follow.
