As I conclude my first week of classes, I wanted to share my experience at La Sagrada Familia. As I walked through the tour, I often found myself standing in awe of the genius of Gaudi. For those who are unfamiliar, Gaudi is a famous architect from Barcelona and he is known for his unique sui generis style. The thing that fascinated me the most was his dedication and determination. Gaudi had been working on La Sagrada Familia for 43 years and ultimately dedicated his last 12 years to the Basilica. To this day, it remains a work in progress hundreds of years later. Every part of the Basilica is unique and interesting. I am very glad I had an opportunity to visit this wonder and hope my pictures have captured some of its beauty.
