During my visit to Barcelona, I was struck by the vibrant and cultural atmosphere of the city. I had the pleasure of exploring iconic landmarks like Guell Park, Casa Batllo, and Casa Mila, and I was constantly inspired by the stunning architecture and unique design of these landmarks.

My eye was captivated by the endless opportunities to capture the beauty and character of these iconic buildings and sights.

this was just a part of that adventure.

Sagrada Familia

One of the most iconic landmarks in Barcelona, the Sagrada Familia is a true testament to the skill and artistry of its architect. With its towering spires and intricate details, the Sagrada Familia is a must-see for any visitor to the city. Every angle of the Sagrada Familia offered a new and unique perspective.

From the colorful mosaics of Guell Park to the undulating lines of Casa Batllo, every corner of the city was a visual feast for the eyes. Casa Mila, also known as La Pedrera, was especially captivating with its sculptural forms and organic design. It was a true testament to the skill and artistry of its architect, Antoni Gaudí.

Casa Batllo

Located in the heart of Barcelona, Casa Batllo is a prime example of the city's unique and modernist architecture. The unique design of Casa Batllo, which was originally an apartment building, is truly one of a kind. The interactive museum walkthrough takes visitors through each room, allowing them to bring to life the inspiration behind the base structure of the room, from the way light enters the space to the structure of the walls.

Towards the end of the experience, you are met with an immersive room, Gaudí Cube by Refik Anadol, which projects a 360º view of the artist’s interpretations of the transition of Gaudi’s work through his mind.

Casa Mila

The building, also known as La Pedrera, is a true masterpiece of architecture and a testament to the skill and artistry of Antoni Gaudí. From the moment I laid eyes on the sculptural forms and organic design, I knew that I had to capture it through my lens. The tour of Casa Mila takes visitors through the entire building, showing the inspiration behind Gaudi's designs.

Idealizing everyday objects to buildings and parks, Gaudi found inspiration in the most unexpected places. The tour culminates on the roof, offering a breathtaking view of the heart of Barcelona. Every angle of Casa Mila offered a new and unique perspective, and I was constantly amazed by the endless opportunities to photograph this iconic landmark.

But Barcelona is not just about the sights – the food in this city is also a highlight. From delicious tapas to fresh seafood paellas, I was constantly impressed by the quality and variety of the food in Barcelona.
