I visited Barcelona in 2005 before I had really heard about or fully appreciated the architecture of Antoni Gaudi so this place came as a real surprise. On a sightseeing day I was walking along the Passeig de Gràcia part of the Illa de la Discòrdia in the Eixample district of Barcelona and heading for the Casa Milà, which is Gaudi’s most famous creation when across the street I saw the most amazing building that I have ever seen that turned out to be the Casa Batlló, recently restored as a museum and open to the public.

Exploring Casa Batlló was an absolute highlight of my visit to Barcelona last year. It felt like wandering through an underwater Jules Verne-esque dream; truly magical.

Hello Andrew,
I was wondering if you have any stock video footage left over from your trip that I could use in my music video?
I am working on a music video for a song dedicated to Barcelona.
I am in love with this city and am trying to make a video collage about it.
Here is the link to a tumblr blog with more details: http://shareyourbarcelona.tumblr.com/
Otherwise, I’ll be happy to answer any questions about the project,
Thank you,
Olga

You can’t mention Spain without mentioning Gaudi. I never really liked him until I went to Spain and saw his work in its home environment. His work is interesting and spectacular in ways only genius artistic architecture can be.

He wouldn’t work outside of Barcelona. Even elsewhere in Spain his work seems out of place somehow.
