admin — Sun, 06 Jun 2010 11:05:53 +0000

Back in Barcelona for a short break right before the summer. This time the focus of the trip was relaxing and taking it easy Parc Güell was high on the priority list and hence spent most of the time enjoying its beauty. Parc Güell is a UNESCO World Heritage Site consisting of a complex of gardens built on a hill and designed by the ever famous Catalan Architect Antoni Gaudí. It definitely is a must see for any visitor to the city. Photos of a few other places of the city has been also included in this album.

The next big thing on the trip was visiting Camp Nou, home to FCB. Futbol Club Barcelona is one of the most successful clubs in Spanish and European football. I won’t get into detail of their achievements but that can easily be checked out if you are interested to know It is worthy to note that it FCB has become a Catalan institution rather than just a club. This explains their motto “Més que un club” which translates to “More than a club”.

One of the things I enjoy in life is a good live performance. Flamenco shows have been very good entertainment over the last few years for me and this show I attended in Barcelona lately is by far the best I have seen yet. I took a couple of video clips and will leave you to enjoy them now

I don’t want to go into the history of this place but I am sure you can easily look it up if interested. Enjoy the photos

El Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Família is without a doubt the world famous, astonishingly beautiful, unfinished church in Barcelona. The building of it has been ongoing since 1882 and is privately funded. Current target for its completion is 2040 but who knows if that will be met. No visit to Barcelona is complete without heading to this wonder. I leave you with the photos.
