Experience It! La Sagrada Familia

Explore the most popular monument in Spain: La Sagrada Familia. Located in

the beautiful city of Barcelona, this giant basilica is one of the most awe-

inspiring structures in the world, and is truly a masterpiece of architecture and

design. Legendary Spanish architect Antoni Gaudí began work on the Roman

Catholic church in 1882, and the building is so immense, immaculate and unique

that it is still under construction today! (It is expected to be finished in 2026, the

100-year anniversary of Gaudí’s death.) This breathtaking work of art, which

contains eight spires (18 when finished, all reaching hundreds of feet into the

air), is a sight to behold from any angle—but that’s just from the outside. As you

walk through La Sagrada Familia’s impossibly towering halls, with stained-glass

windows rising up into the sky, you will know you are experiencing one of the

world’s greatest treasures.
