Junta Constructora Del Temple Expiatori De La Sagrada Famili
Although it's still under construction (since 1882), this landmark is one of the most famous of Gaudi's achievements. There are parts that aren't entirely Gaudi, but it's a magnificent temple none the less.
Parc Güell
The dragon fountain in the park is probably one of the most recognizable photos of Gaudi's. This beautiful park is a wonderland of all types of architectural fascinations. Even though it's a good 20 minute walk from the nearest subway stop ... it's worth it.
Casa Batlló
If you ever imagined living in a fantastic underwater world this place would be the closest thing to it. The beautiful mosaics and reliefs are amazing. Also pay attention to the windows and lighting. There's a very specific reason that the windows are varying in sizes.
Casa Milà (La Pedrera)
A spectacle from the outside, the inside, and on top. This fabulous building is near the Casa Batlló. Aside from the interesting architecture on the inside and the outside, it features some interesting chimneys on the roof top.
