This is without a doubt the best neighbourhood in Barcelona. I love the care that went into the streets, the architecture and most of all the Gaudi creations. I always stay here.

From its wobbly front to the mad roof I loved this building from top to bottom! I'd not managed to see this last time i was on holiday in Barcelona and I have to say it's one of my favourites now.

I think I would pay a lot of money to live in Casa Battlo, it's my idea of architectural heaven. I've seen a lot of gaudi's work and this is definitely the best in my eyes.

I adore Gaudi's work and I was so enthralled by Casa Mila, his imagining of what an apartment block could be like. There's not a straight line in sight and even the ceilings are wonky to allow the maximum light in. The roof is my favourite bit, with a multitude of crazy chimneys looking like a dream-army!

The amazing influence of gaudi is everywhere in this lovely city but my favourite of all is casa battlo. truly breathtaking design and simply lovely, i'd advise taking the audio tour to really get the full picture.
