Iconic cultural sights of Spain
Another center of the country's culture is the capital of Catalonia, Barcelona. The most famous and grandiose architectural structures are located there. They are mainly created by the legendary architect Antonio Gaudi. The Temple of the Holy Family or Sagrada Familia is a real landmark of the city and one of its symbols. The construction of the temple began in 1882. It does not stop until now. All elements in the building have a deep religious significance. The building is topped by numerous towers. Other, not less effective constructions of Gaudi are the house of the Batlló and the Mila House. In the house of Batlló, the traveler will not find any straight line, as Gaudi was inspired by the figure of a giant dragon. Mila House belongs to a private organization. Today, it regularly hosts exhibitions.
