A Gaudi Tour of Barcelona (4)

We visited the Gaudi museum under Sagrada Familia then took the metro and a bus to Park Guell. In about 1900 Eusebi Guell entrusted Gaudi the plan to create an estate for well-off families in a large property that Guell had acquired in the zone know popularly as the Montana Pelada (bare mountain). It’s location was unbeatable, in a healthy setting with splendid views over the sea and the Plain of Barcelona. In fact only three residences were built - one for Guell, one for Guell’s lawyer and one for Gaudi. It reminded me of many real estate developments that are started by entrepreneurs but fail before completion. However the attraction here is Gaudi’s remarkable designs.
There was a great view of Barcelona and the coast from the park. I was very greatfull to Suzie for a fascinating day.
