On the tracks of Yuri On Ice in Barcelona - Day 3
After The Beach™️ near the GPF hotal and venue, after The Church™️ and the Red Towers, we still had many places to visit!
Next was Casa Batllò, the jewellery shop and all we would find in between...

This one was easy but the crowd in front of it was insane!! Viktor and Yuuri almost got lost 😱
Tumblr media
They looked again but still no bag of nuts, sadly...
@tony-dreams suffered again for good pics!
We then went up the Passeig de Gràcia to find the jewellery store. We knew the shop name wasn't the same as in the show, so we started to look for the name we had been told it was, "Carrera y Carrera". This one got us looking for quite some time, because it must have recently closed and replaced by...

An interior design store! We checked it was indeed the right one..

We wandered around a bit more but didn't want to do too much because next day was meat to be The Biggest Day yet with both Sagrada Familia and Park Güell!

5 Architectural Beauties You Can't Miss in Barcelona
Tumblr media
Barcelona is the magical and enchanting capital of Catalonia, a city that perfectly mixes its wide culture and architectural landscape. From the iconic work of Antoni Gaudí to the splendorous and stopped-in-time medieval structures, Barcelona knows how to capture the spirit of innovation and artistic expression. Stay around to know which of this city’s attractions you can’t miss if you love architecture (the fourth one is my favorite)
La Sagrada Familia: Gaudí’sMasterpiece
In its own neighborhood, called after it, La Sagrada Familia stands imposingly as a dream to everyone who stares at it, despite whether you’re religious or not. It mixes different styles of architecture, such as Gothic, modernism and Catalan modernism. The project started in 1882 and wasn’t Gaudí's. Francisco de Paula del Villar y Lozano was the architect who promoted the creation of this temple and later quit.
Its forms and colors are simply amazing. It’s all planned for the sun to hit the stained glass at certain hours, giving a colorful projection on the inside walls. It also has many nature references, such as fruits, vegetables, and overall plants, that represent Gaudí’s real understanding and value of God's creation: nature. The church is not finished yet; they expect it to be ready by 2033, but you can visit it every day, and tickets go from 26 euros to 40 euros. I highly recommend going to the towers; I’ve never seen something like that.
Casa Batlló: The House of Bones
This, along with La Sagrada Familia, is probably the most famous art piece Gaudí executed. Constructed in 1877 by Emilio Sala Cortés, it started as a very basic building. Later, in 1904, Josep Batlló i Casanovas, a textile industrialist, assigned Gaudí the total renovation of the place, which showcases his maturity stage in these years. It has seven stories, 11 balconies, and a trippy front that will make your neck hurt from prolonged staring. Its concept relies on, again, nature, but more specifically on marine inspiration and fantastic landscapes. They were radical ideas for the time, making this a very modern creation. It’s located in the center of Barcelona and you can visit it every day. Prices range from 29 euros to 45 euros, and packages include night-time tours, real-life stories and light shows.
Parc Güell: Nature Art Strikes Again
Barcelona remains beautiful, and it seems to get more beautiful with the years, but classics are classics, and this other artwork we’ll review also belongs to Gaudí, surprisingly (not). Located on the Barcelona hills, this public park also integrates architecture with nature. It gives us a fantasy path with serpentine benches, mosaics made from broken ceramic tiles and a great panoramic view of the city and the Mediterranean Sea. Full of vibrant colors and playful forms, it reveals Gaudí’s fascination with organic shapes and his knowledge of architecture fusion with the natural environment. Before 2013, it was fully public and free, but since then, the Monumental Area has had limited access, and prices go from 10 euros to 22 euros. Visiting takes approximately one hour, and you’ll be taken on a tour through the most emblematic points of interest, where you can relive history and connect with the values of modernism, the secrets of Gaudí’s architecture, and the harmony of the park with nature. I wouldn’t miss it.
The Gothic Quarter: Medieval Fantasy
If you’re like me and you’d love to spend at least a day in the Medieval Era, this city is for you.
Right in the heart of Barcelona, you’ll find yourself in the Gothic Quarter, a labyrinth of diagonals, narrow streets and squares that effortlessly transport you to a bygone era that will make you feel like time has stopped. The Barcelona Cathedral, the King’s Square (or Placa del Rei), the Bishop’s Bridge, or the Call Jueu will be your friends and companions in this medieval fantasy you’ll be living in. It made me think about how kings and queens lived in the XV century, what kind of extravagant parties they hosted and the opulent garments they would choose to adorn. They all greatly represent Catalan architecture, with a perfect dash of European history. You don’t need to pay anything to walk on these streets—just the price of melancholia and goosebumps.
Palau de la Música Catalana: A Symphony in Stone
This great grand concert hall somehow reminds me of La Sagrada Familia. The stained glasses and enormous size make you feel so little but powerful. It was built by modernist architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner and it means “Music Palace”. It was finished in 1908, and today it can host up to 2049 people almost every day. It is as beautiful on the outside as it is on the inside, but it’s not just aesthetically superior, it also gives us a perfect sound, thanks to its structure, conceived as a music box. It suffered a catastrophe 20 years ago when it went to ashes after a fire in 1994. Everyone in the city helped move what they could, and in 1999, after record time, it was rebuilt and reopened to the public. You can visit it with a tour guide if you want to know more details. Visits last 55 minutes and cost 20 euros, but I would also recommend booking a night to go and listen to some music; the experience is way beyond your imagination.
Immerse Yourself: Barcelona's Architectural Poetry Unfolded
Barcelona is, indeed, your next stop. Nothing like any other traditional landmark, its architectural richness is a gift to anyone visiting. It’s a living testament to the city’s commitment to artistic expression, innovation and cultural identity.
From the timeless works of Antoni Gaudí to the medieval charm of the Gothic Quarter and the modernist marvels that dot the cityscape, Barcelona invites you to embark on a journey through centuries of architectural evolution and revolution.
Its magic unfolds, preserving its cultural heritage while embracing the avant-garde of past, present and future. Each structure tells a story, taking you to different worlds: history, art, and imagination; creating a symphony of architectural beauty that defines this Mediterranean gem.
It’s a reinvention, a timeless haven for architectural enthusiasts and curious travelers. It’s a visual poem that you will not want to stop reading.
