Top 10 Points of Interest & Landmarks in Passeig de Gràcia, Catalonia
Barcelona feels a bit surreal – appropriate, since Salvador Dali spent time here and Spanish Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí designed several of the city’s buildings. Stepping into Gaudí’s Church of the Sacred Family is a bit like falling through the looking glass - a journey that you can continue with a visit to Park Güell. Sip sangria at a sidewalk café in Las Ramblas while watching flamboyant street performers, then create your own moveable feast by floating from tapas bar to tapas bar.

Casa Mila, popularly known as La Pedrera, is a most unusual building, constructed between 1906 and 1912 by the architect Antoni Gaudí (1852–1926) and declared UNESCO World Heritage in 1984. Today it is the headquarters of Fundacio Catalunya La Pedrera and houses a cultural centre that is a reference point in Barcelona for the range of activities it organises and the different spaces for exhibitions and other public uses it contains. A visit to La Pedrera, landmark building and container, gives us a better understanding and appreciation of architecture and transports us to the period when Antoni Gaudi lived.

We were amazed by the apartment building for the Mila family...and wandered in awe around the roof, attic, apartment, and courtyards of one of Gaudi's great accomplishments. We were mesmerized by his vision, his highlighting of natural elements and his keen craftmanship. What an extraordinary architect and builder!

Passeig de Gracia is a street with mostly designer shops and restaurants.There are plenty of beautiful architecture all around.A bunch of them were designed by Gaudi. The most advertised of Gaudi’s work along the Passeig de Gracia is being renovated and the facade is all covered up.Don’t be too disappointed because the street is full of other attractions.The interesting lamp posts are also the works of Gaudi.There are plenty of entrances to the train station along this street.If a walk along La Rambla is too chaotic for you , you may find a walk along Passeig de Gracia a better option .
