So many peams have already been written about Barcelona's modernism and Antonio Gaudi that it is scary to join the crowd of enthusiasts of his talent. However, reading and seeing for yourself is a big difference. While visiting the city, I had the opportunity to admire the most popular works of the genius Catalan, who drew inspiration for his works from the natural world. I was most impressed by the facade of Casa Batllo, columns resembling tree branches in Sagrada Familia and the lizard from Park Guel.
