Sagrada Familia (Gaudijeva Katedrala)
Bazilika, Hram Expiatori de la Sagrada Família, poznatiji kao Sagrada Família, je crkva u izgradnji u kvartu Eixample u Barseloni. To je najveća nedovršena katolička crkva na svetu. Projektovao ju je katalonski arhitekta Antoni Gaudí (1852–1926).
Mislim da je bila velika hrabrost u to vreme, doneti odluku da se zida takva katedrala koja je odudarala od svih sablona tog vremena. Isplatilo se. To je danas, jedna od najpoznatijih gradjevina sveta. Zaista deluje impozantno.

Sagrada Familia (Gaudi’s Cathedral)
The Basílica, Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Família, otherwise known as Sagrada Família, is a church under construction in the Eixample district of Barcelona. It is the largest unfinished Catholic church in the world. Designed by the Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí (1852–1926).
I think it took great bravery at that time to make the decision to build such a cathedral that stood out from all the temples of that era. It paid off. Today, it is one of the most famous buildings in the world. It really looks impressive.

Barcelona, Korida
Prva borba u areni poznatoj pod imenom Plaza de El Sport, u Barceloni, odrzana je 1914 godine pred oko 19.000 gledalaca.
Dve godine kasnije, proširena je na 24.000 i preimenovana u Plaza de Toros Monumental de Barcelona.
(2010. godine, katalonski parlament je glasao za zabranu borbi sa bikovima u regionu, a poslednja borba u Barseloni održana je u La Monumental 25. septembra 2011. godine, označavajući kraj visevekovne tradicije u Barseloni. Iako je zabrana na kraju ukinuta na španskim sudovima, više borbi sa bikovima nije bilo u regionu.)
Barcelona, Bullfighting
In 1914 the bullfighting arena known as Plaza de El Sport hosted its first bullfight in Barcelona in front of a capacity crowd of over 19,000 spectators. Two years later it was expanded to 24,000 and was renamed the Plaza de Toros Monumental de Barcelona.
(In 2010, the Catalan parliament voted to ban bullfighting in the region and the last bullfight in Barcelona was held at La Monumental on 25th September 2011 marking the end of a centuries-old tradition in Barcelona. Although the ban was ultimately overturned in the Spanish courts, no more bullfights have been held in the region.)
