When a monument is visited by more than 3 million people every year, there has to be something.
And la Sagrada Família has it. Something difficult to explain. Magical. Wonderful.
And there are not enough lines to explain it.
Its construction began in 1882, and it’s not finished yet.
Antoni Gaudí created, without knowing it, Barcelona’s most representative image.
Nowadays, people are still working following the architect’s directions.
It has been said that the temple will be finished for Gaudí’s death century.
But don’t wait for it, you can come earlier!
