Barcelona - Gaudi and La Sagrada Familia
Our visit to the Sagrada Familia started at the east-facing Nativity Facade and then we went to the west-facing Passion facade. The sculptures and details on the Nativity Facade are pretty amazing. However, it seems that the Glory Facade which is currently being worked on will be the largest and most striking.
