Park Güell in Barcelona

Park Güell, declared a World Heritage Site, is one of the most beautiful parks in the world and another must-see in the city. This park was designed by Gaudi, and surprises all visitors with its sculptures, fountains and buildings inspired by the undulating forms of nature. Furthermore, one of our favorite places is the Plaza de la Naturaleza. It has incredible views of the city from the lookout point.

La Sagrada Familia

Entering this temple is almost an obligatory stop, as it is very representative of Barcelona. The masterpiece of the architect Gaudi, is one of the best things you can visit in the city. The interior and exterior of La Sagrada Familia are a marvel, nothing comparable to other churches in the world. Using all his experience and new techniques, he has created a naturalistic style.
