#europetrip The night view of Batro House is so beautiful!! Looking forward to the indoor visit the next day!!! Casa Batllo: The design concept comes from the religious story "Saint George slaying the dragon". There are often stories of knights slaughtering dragons to save princesses, although the soul that Gaudi brought to this city is unique. Gaudi's introduction of nature into architecture is a display of how every glass is like a shimmering sea. Natural elements such as the ocean, shells, creatures, bones, lava, etc. are cleverly integrated into Gaudi's architecture to drive scholars

#100WaysOfTravel If you buy a Barcelona modern art card, you can exchange it directly for a ticket. It belongs to the blue ticket. Remember to get a free tour. Compared with La Pedrera, I prefer this one. The elements of nature are well integrated in it, as if walking on the bottom of the sea, and time is staggered. And the gold ticket will have a tablet that can restore the layout at that time in 3d. I always secretly look at other people's screens.

You can note 'wellcooked' for seafood rice, as most are served undercooked, which I personally don't prefer 2. Attractions that require advance booking: Alhambra, Gaudí's trio, Palau de la Música, Royal Alcazar of Seville 3. Taxi fares are quite cheap, if carrying luggage you can choose to take a taxi 4. For early trains, you can choose to take a taxi, public transport also starts very early 5. Some trains require a luggage purchase, it's displayed on the ticket, pay attention to buy luggage 6. Palau de la Música Catalana is highly recommended, not big but very beautiful, a hidden gem 7. My personal order for Gaudí's trio: Sagrada Familia = Casa Batlló > Casa Milà, if you can get early tickets, consider prioritizing, might be a bit more expensive 8. The towns are all very beautiful, whether Sitges, Toledo, or Córdoba, all feel great 9. Highly recommend the south! The Andalusia region is really beautiful!!! 10. Many desserts are delicious, especially try the cheesecake, so good 11. The seafood is also very nice! ➡️Some regrets: 1. It's a pity that it rained in Barcelona, didn't see the sunset or enjoy immersive street walking 2. Not many coffee shops like Starbucks where you can just grab and go 3. Really wanted to go to Mallorca and Cadaqués, might consider going there later Dali's house seems very nice, but the round trip distance is a bit far 4. Misjudged the clothes a bit, brought a lot of dresses that weren't used

I want to tell you about a place that alone has been able to excite me more than anything in the Spanish city: Casa Batllò. Even today, 4 years later, when I think back to that day of warm sunshine and the first time I came into contact with an architecture by Antoni Gaudi, I am moved. Legend has it that centuries ago in Montblanc (Terragona) a fierce dragon was raging on the inhabitants of the city. The latter desperate from the continuous destruction, appeased his anger, sacrificing one person a day and "giving it to him for a meal". The time came to sacrifice the princess too, but the brave Saint George ran to his aid and pierced the dragon with his sword and an incredible rose garden was born from the blood that flowed. Since that day, this popular legend is celebrated every year on April 23: the day of San Jordi. Perfect time to visit the house as it is set up with thousands of red roses to represent the spilled blood. The house is open every day of the year from 9 to 21 (last access at 20) at 43 in Paseo de Gracia. The basic ticket costs 25 euros and includes an augmented reality audio guide. A monitor connected to your device will allow you to admire what Gaudì had done in terms of furniture. An idea of ​​what the house was like when the Batllò family resided here and the site had not yet been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In December we did not find a queue but in any case tickets can be purchased online. #barcelona #awesomepic #historicallandmarks #unforgettableexperiences #spain #europe #casabattlo
