Reconstruction

It should be mentioned that today's Barcelona Pavilion is a reconstruction, as the original pavilion was disassembled after the closure of the Barcelona International Exhibition 1930. Nevertheless, it's a must-see for everyone interested in modern architecture.

great atmosphere

The atmosphere in that stadium is just great. Sitting in the upper sections enables you to have a great view on the whole arena; I really recommend to go there and have a look, especially enjoying a game.

Me gustaria alguna vez ir a barcelona y ver esta magnifica construccion al puro estilo de Gaudi.

Torre Agbar

Contrasta mucho la imagen del agbar con las fachadas de las casas de los barrios antiguos, como queriendo tapar la vista hacia el edificio y que las casas no existan ante los turistas.

Casa Milá was a predecessor of some buildings with a similar biomorphic appearance:

- Einstein Tower in Potsdam,
- S. R. Guggenheim Museum in NY,
- Chapelle Notre Dame du Haut,
- the Hundertwasserhaus,
- Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles
