Park Guell

is located in the north-eastern end of Gracia, once a suburb of Barcelona. The park is situated on a hill, with a very nice view of Barcelona. ![barc2.jpg]() This is certainly one of the most unusual public parks in the world. Initially, a housing estate, a garden town with sixty residential buildings, was to be built there. The owner of the building was an industrialist, owner of textile factories. - Eusebi Güell, who during his numerous voyages to England has been inspired by his neighborhoods-gardens, inhabited by wealthy layers of society. He decided to build something similar in Barcelona, ​​commissioning the architectural project of Gaudi.![park.jpg]() The artist started work around 1900, but from the planned sixty buildings were created only two, with extremely fancy shapes, resembling gingerbread huts. ![Bez-nazwy-3.jpg]()![Bez-nazwy-5.jpg]()
