Book your guided tour of Sagrada Familia and Park Güell with tickets now and discover two of the most emblematic works of Antoni Gaudí in Barcelona.
Don't miss the Park Güell tour: it will really surprise you! You will not find any park like it in the world! This architectural marvel, created in the middle of nature by Antoni Gaudí, was commissioned by Count Güell, who wanted him to design an elegant estate with family homes. Today it is a public park and it belongs to the city's heritage. It has been declared UNESCO’s World heritage site and is just another marvel that awaits you on your visit to Barcelona.
When you go to Park Güell, you should enter by the big staircase dominated by the dragon decorated with a mosaic of ceramic tiles, the Catalan style known as trencadís. This dragon is one of the most characteristic images of Barcelona. Originally written Park Güell (using the English spelling), the park is arranged around a large central square bordered by a snaking, trencadís-covered bench. Below the square, the roof is supported by 86 Doric columns, like trees, with paths between them, and viaducts on sloping columns: Gaudí's work, like no other, unites nature and architecture.
The Sagrada Familia is one of the most visited buildings in the world. You will visit the astonishing interior of this church, where vaults reach seventy meters. Antoni Gaudí designed a Latin cross plan with five aisles, extremely rich in ornamentation and symbolism. You will also visit the Sagrada Familia museum, where you will see drawings, plaster models and pictures about the history and development of this basilica from its early beginnings to the present day. The museum will also give you valuable information about Antoni Gaudí's life and career.
At the end of the museum visit, the guide will leave you at the entrance of the elevator to the tower, where you have admission included. Take the elevator up the tower to admire the astonishing views of the city from there.
