Park Guell, Barcelona, Spain

May 3, 2023 | Park, Spain

In 1900, Eusebi Güell, member of a rich and royal family from Barcelona, commissioned Antoni Gaudí to build a luxury residential park on an unused plot of land in the north east of Barcelona.

I entered the park through a side entrance, so I walked toward the park’s main entrance.

Looking back, it seems there is something up there.  I better check it out.

I am up here and found that it is just a walkway.

One of the special sights in Guell Park is the Casa Museu Gaudí; this is the house where Antoni Gaudí spent the last 20 years of his life. Not only did he design this house, but the museum it now contains provides a lot of insight into the life and work of Gaudi.

Looking at the right side, I found a “roofed” way.
