Barcelona : La Sagrada Familia Basilica by Antonio Gaudí - Part 2
Info ☛ La Sagrada Familia is one of Gaudí's most famous
works in Barcelona. It's a giant Basilica that has been under construction
since 1882 (that's not a typing error!) and it's not expected to be completed
for some time yet.Much controversy surrounds the building of the
Sagrada Familia. Today new construction materials are being used which, some
feel, Gaudí himself would not have used.
When you visit the building you will see the contrast in the stone
colour between the front and back of the building. Also the actual style of
construction appears somewhat different between the new and old parts of the
building.
Gaudí played an active role in directing the
construction of the Sagrada Familia until his death in 1926. He would often
request that work be modified and adjusted until it was exactly what he had in
mind. However today, because of the nature of the existing designs, his work is
partly open to interpretation. Interpretation of the ordinal designs by present
day architects is particularly challenging because the actual construction
stones are irregularly shaped.
The building is still under construction so be
prepared to see a lot of work continuing when you visit. However this in itself
is interesting, especially if you visit the museum inside the building. Regardless
of all the controversy surrounding the Sagrada Familia it is a truly
magnificent building and an absolute
must-see when you visit Barcelona.

Info ☛Αποκλείεται
να πάτε στην Βαρκελώνη και να μην δείτε τον γιγαντιαίο Ρωμαιοκαθολικό ναό Sagrada
Familia. Το έργο κατατεθέν του διάσημου αρχιτέκτονα Antoni Gaudí κατασκευάζεται
ακόμα από το 1882 και δεν αναμένεται να τελειώσει τουλάχιστον πριν το 2026. Η
κατασκευή χαρακτηρίζεται από δεκάδες συμβολισμούς με χαρακτηριστικό παράδειγμα
τον κεντρικό πύργο που ονομάζετε "πύργος του Χριστού" και με τα 170
μέτρα του είναι κατά 1 μέτρο μικρότερος από των λόφο Montjuïc (έναν
από τους βασικούς λόφους της πόλης), καθώς ο Gaudi πίστευε ότι η δημιουργία του δεν πρέπει
να ξεπεράσει την δημιουργία του θεού. Ίσως το πιο εντυπωσιακό χαρακτηριστικό
του ναού (εκτός από το μέγεθός του) είναι ότι ακόμα κατασκευάζεται ενώ, υπάρχει
μεγάλη διαμάχη για τα υλικά που χρησιμοποιούνται σήμερα με πολλούς να λένε ότι
ο Gaudi δεν θα τα
χρησιμοποιούσε. Μην χάσετε στο υπόγειο του κτιρίου, όπου υπάρχει ένα μίνι
μουσείο στο οποίο θα βρείτε το original σχέδιο του αρχιτέκτονα,
το οποίο έγινε με σακουλάκια από τσάι που κρέμονται ανάποδα.
BaRcEloNa : The Poble Espanyol !!!
Info ☛ The Poble Espanyol, or Spanish Village, is an open-air
museum comprising full-scale replicas of 117 buildings from different parts of
Spain. It was built on Montjuïc Mountain for the 1929 International Exhibition
in Barcelona and the diversity of its squares, streets and houses give it the
feel of a real village.
☛ Since its inception, the Poble Espanyol has
been considered one of Barcelona’s
unique attractions. Its layout – a real village with a diversity of streets and
squares, free of traffic and surrounded by nature – has helped
create a special microcosm where art, leisure and culture play a prominent
role. First and foremost, the Poble Espanyol gives you the chance to see a
diversity of houses, squares and landmark buildings from throughout Spain, from
an Aragonese church to an Andalusian quarter, brought together on one site with
an audioguide to help you find your way around. You’ll also find over 40 arts
and crafts workshops (jewellery, glass, masks, embroidery, puppets, leather
goods, ceramics…), selling one-off, signature pieces. Because of its commitment
to keeping traditional crafts alive, Barcelona’s
Poble Espanyol has been declared an Area of Craft Interest by the Catalan government. You’ll also find original
shops and wide variety of Mediterranean cuisine. The “Poble for Kids "
programme organises activities such as performances and children’s workshops
and a treasure hunt, the "Joc del Sarró", a family activity which
reveals the secrets of the Poble Espanyol in a fun and informative way.
