Park Guell is another Gaudi creation, originally intended to be a "model community," but now a public park.
Though the community project failed, its intentions are still obvious in its design. Covered areas for a marketplace, different levels for housing, winding pathways, gardens, and beautiful views of the city.
(Including a view which you may or may not recognize from a past season of America's Next Top Model. Yes. I saw it. Don't judge too hard, please.)
Gingerbread houses! Or...meant to be a school and a guard house, I believe?
Friendly neighborhood pets, too!
There is also, of course, plenty of mosaic in the typical Gaudi style:
And you must not forget the famous lizard statue at the front:
Next up, food? The Cathedral? Marketplaces? All of the above?
