Barcelona

Our love of this city has not diminished since the last time we were here, and we have enjoyed visiting some of our favourite places, which tend to surround the work of Gaudi.

The last time we were here the queue to visit the apartment block La Pedrera was so long that we decided to give it a miss.

This time there was no queue at all and we had a great time, starting off up on the roof terrace with the famous “Warrior Chimneys” which we both thought were amazing, and we had a real buzz at finally seeing them up close.

This photo shows the inside part of the building

Here are some photos taken on the roof.

Down from the roof terrace there is the attic where one can see the support structure for the roof, which in itself is almost art. The following photo of a model taken inside the attic is the only real way one can see the complete building.

Then it’s down to the next level where there is an apartment fully furnished in the period of the building which was also extremely interesting.

Now rather than me sound like the Barcelona Tourist Board I’ll leave it there and finish off with a photo of Casa Batllo.
