Gaudi for the five senses - La Pedrera


Hola amigos!
I'm in Barcelona, spending a take-it-easy style of time in this busy city, which I found not too bad. Anyway no sightseeings are in my favor (since I used to live here before), instead, I'm sitting in different cafes reading books or watching people and checking new shops in the daytime, and dancing Tango at night!

I, however, did a specific sightseeing, which I do every time I'm in BCN - visited`La Pedrera`. This is one of Gaudi's works and constructed as a residencial building about a century ago. This modernista building is just so beautiful both in its exterior and interior, and even on the smallest details like a door handle, door frames and so on. When I enter this building, I feel like as if I was in the water, completely shut out from the outer world. It's like a spell that entrances all my five senses!

We are heading for the beach - Costa Brava - for this weekend!!
