Parc Guell... more Gaudi in Barcelona

We took a cab one of our days to Parc Guell, which is situated up on a hill above Barcelona. Gaudi designed this Parc to actually be a 30-acre garden and 60 residence housing development. It flopped but as a park it is a delight. Here you can see the view from the park, looking down onto Barcelona and then the ocean.

And here is the entrance to the park.

With more Gaudi style buildings.


And layers of walk ways and balconies.

Here was a guy in one of the caverns under the walk ways. He sounded beautiful in the rock surounds but with a get up like that, we weren't actually sure about him...

Gaudi furniture in the museum in the park.

Beautiful not doesn't look particularly comfortable, heh?
