Barcelona

Stamped: 10:31 AM

The city well known for its iron-grided urban planning. People here are very friendly too. Though so, we didn't let our guards down cuz we heard of some bad stories about robberies and stuff. That aside, this place is really wonderful. To begin with, it is home to one of the bridges I studied for my Y3P3 project! Also, we were so glad to see Starbucks!

Above is Jean Nouvel's Torre Agbar building, and below, the famous Barcelona Pavilion by Mies van de Rohe. Seeing is believing. Less is more :) The last photo shows our hostel door. It's a giant door with a small cut-out for hobbits ;) Our hostel is located at the end of La Rambla, a busy street flanked by shops and where many buskers entertain!
