When you reach the end of Las Ramblas, you will find you can continue to walk through the port along a newer honorary "rambla" that entends across the water and to the other side. On a hot summer day this is a really beautiful place to sit and eat or just watch the boats floating and the people walk by.
The continuous construction of the Sagrada Familia is impressive as you walk through the interior of the Cathedral. The scaffoding, which you see here is almost as dynamic as the architecture and gives one the sense of walking through a structure that is almost alive.
Part of La Pedrera is a museum, set up like an apartment would have been back when it was built. You can walk through and peek in the the living quarters etc...
This is one view of the Kitchen.
In the dark attic of La Pedrera you will find even more about the history of the building, city, and architect. The space is filled with displays and furniture to enhance your experience.
One of the most amazing things about the ornate chimneys on the roof of the building is the ornate tile work that enhances the almost kaleidescopic effect.
Tourists wander through and look up into the rafters at the Cathedral being built around them.
Walking out under the canopy of the facade, the shadows cast create even more drama.
As the market opens, vendors put their wares out on display and make ready for the days shopping.
Fresh meat, fish and produce are not the only thing you can get while in the BoquerĂa market, you can also find a large selection of prepared foods, sandwiches and cafe's, perfect for a hungry Traveler.
Fans are the ultimate souvenir from Spain. In every size, colour, price range and for just about every occasion, they make great gifts.
