The Sagrada Família 🏰✨(1)
Here comes the highlight of this trip! 🎉🧳 🛠️The Sagrada Família, officially known as the Basilica and Expiatory Temple of the Holy Family, is an unfinished Roman Catholic church and a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in Barcelona, Spain 🇪🇸🏛️. Construction of the church began in 1882 and remains unfinished to this day ⏳. The original architect was Francisco de Paula del Villar, and in 1883, Antoni Gaudí took over the project until his death in 1926 👨🎨💔. • Unique Style: It blends Gothic, naturalism, expressionism, and Art Nouveau styles, combining religious faith with natural beauty. 📐It breaks traditional rules, creating a flowing and organic visual impression 🏰. It's like a symphony of architectural forms coming to life! 🎶🏛️ • Innovative Structure: Gaudí utilized catenary models and complex geometric shapes, such as spiral piers, hyperbolic arch structures, and parabolas, to optimize the building's stability and aesthetics. 🌌This allows it to stand independently without additional support 🔧. It's a marvel of engineering that seems to defy gravity! 🚀 #Travel #OverseasLife #SeeTheWorld
