Casa Batllo
in Barcelona City
-->
This colorful old building is one of Gaudí's many masterpieces in Barcelona and set in fine company amongst some other fine examples of modern architecture. A reflection of the fun-loving nature of the city, you can benefit from the sense of one-up-manship amongst the architects of the century old houses.
The colorful sandstone covered in mosaic of Catalan flavour is typical Gaudí and almost out of a fairy tale, albeit one with some occasional surprises in the form of skulls, bones, snakes and dragons. Definitely worth a taking time out of your busy
weekend trip to catch this house. Amazing hotels all within walking distance include
Catalonia Ramblas,
Gran Hotel Torre Catalunya and the
ME Barcelona.
