Another great example of Barcelona’s wonderful architecture and of Gaudì’s genius is the beautiful Casa Batlò. Built during the 19th century for a wealthy aristocrat, this building is special for its unusual looks: the several curves, natural forms, and tiles that remind of reptile scales have earned it the nickname of Casa del Drac, which can be translated into House of the Dragon. #casa #batlò #architecture #gaudi #casa #del #drac #house #of #dragon

Barcelona is an amazing city because it provides you with everything you are looking for during a vacation. Take a break from museums and architecture and relax in one of the many beaches that the city offers. One of the most popular is the Barceloneta, located in Vila Olimpica, which hosted the Olympics in 1992. Try to get there early if you want some peace as during the afternoon the beach tends to get crowded with many teenagers and younger people escaping from the hustle of the city. #relay #beach #barcelona #vacation #museum #architecture #barceloneta #vila #olimpica #spain #sea #sand
