This has to rank in the top three highlights of all of our world travels so far. This place was truly magical. It was financed by a wealthy family as a private subdivision in the hills overlooking Barcelona. Gaudi designed and worked on it between 1900 – 1914. The project never succeeded and all work was stopped after only two houses were built. But the maze of pathways, pavilions, sculptures and terraces that cover the 30 hectares are incredible. I’ve only posted a few pictures, but if you are interested in more just do a simple Google search on Parc Guell and you can see many more.
