Barcelona is home to GaudÃ's Sagrada Familia Cathedral. Never in my life have I been so in awe of a church. I squealed at first sight.
Of course I've seen it and read about it my entire life, but seeing the Sagrada Familia in person was unlike anything I've ever imagined, much less seen. It's other-worldly. (I felt the same way about the Eiffel Tower).
P.S. Doesn't it remind you of a sand drip-castle?

Totes.

i can't imagine ever feeling down if that sight was close to me.
so jealous of the people who live in picturesque areas!
Wow that is gorgeous! :D Absolutely beautiful!
It's so beautiful! I absolutely love it.
I loved visiting this church. I did not love climbing the stairs inside the church quite as much. Oh, but Barcelona is near and dear to my heart. Such an amazing city. I have loved following your travels there!
those gorgeous purple flowers remind me of my time in spain. this church looks beautiful.
Such a stunning place.
it's almost magical. and i felt the same exact way about the eiffel tower. i just stood there and stared at it for what felt like hours.
i was not able to capture this church without somehow taking pics that were made up of 99% scaffolding. yours look great, though!
same here @Jenni! My pics have banners in them that were hanging from the top of this beautiful architectural masterpiece... so needless to say, not great images. :) Olivia, your images are fantastic!!! xo
Oh my gosh, it looks so amazing now! I saw la sagrada familia when I was in Barcelona in 2004, but the spires were nothing like they are now!
I LOVE LOVE this cathedral! After studying abroad in Europe, this one was my all time favorite! Did you check out the inside?? If I remember correctly, it was open air and there were orange trees scattered about...an absolutely amazing experience!
Enjoy :)
I was just there this past April. All of your photos are bringing back such wonderful memories. I even did a late blog post of my experience recently... since i was feeling so nostalgic.
Enjoy. Barcelona is a beautiful city.
Jah :)

Spain is quickly moving to the top of my "places to visit" list thanks to your beautiful posts! :)
Gorgeous photographs- what amazing light!

I love Barcelona... Gaudi is incredible - a total genius, but a little whacky!
