Overview

Why does not La Pedrera use air conditioning? And why is this famous Gaudí building called exactly like that, the quarry? How did the Quarter of Discord appear in Barcelona? Why Gaudi was not the first person who begin to build Sagrada Familia?

Mysterious genius-architect may seem even more mysterious after you learn the answers to these questions in our bike tour of the most famous buildings of this artist. Each of them can reveal to you a whole world of fantasy, magic, but also prosaic irony with a lack of financing for these branded objects without which now it’s impossible to imagine Barcelona.
