The church of La Sagrada Família (Sacred Family) is a work on a grand scale which was began in 1882 and is scheduled to be completed in 2025. This religious and architectural masterpiece by Anontio Guadi is a short walk from my Barcelona apartment which means I can easily stop by and shoot pictures whenever I’d like from the outside. My favorite time is the early morning when I run by the church and not a single sole is around. Go after 8:30AM though and the big line of tourists is already forming to go inside.
It’s definitely worth a trip inside to get the grand feel of the place. If you go, take a hat for waiting in line, 15 to 20 Euros for the ticket, and a good camera with a wide angle lens.

And if you can’t go for yourself, let me take you inside the Sagrada Familia with photography:

Wow! 143 years to complete the La Sagrada Família, and that is if they finish it by 2025. I did not know about this.
