I think that this is the first time that I really really came out of an experience just in awe and amazement that honestly it was quite an emotional experience going in there as well construction on the Sagrada família began in 1882 and it is still considered incomplete more than a hundred years

Later now can you imagine a hundred years by comparison the pyramids of Egypt only took 20 years to build La Sagrada família was designed by Catalan architect Antonio Gaudi now Gaudi disliked straight lines and angles since they don’t often appear naturally so he based his design on the swirling curves of nature and of course you recall the IV at the entrance of the church so la Sagrada família was also

Meant to be a simple Roman Catholic Church but later on who was designated as a cathedral and then in 2010 a basilica by pope benedict xvi There are to be 18 towers at la Sagrada família 12 towers will represent apostle’s 4 will represent the evangelists 1 will be designated for the Virgin Mary and the highest one in the middle of course will represent Jesus Christ now the only saw a quarter of the

Project finished prior to his death in an ironic twist of fate Gowdy was walking to confession when he was hit by a tram at the time he had actually abandoned his appearance due to depression after several of his friends family and collaborators had died after the tram accident he did not receive

Proper help or care because people around him thought that he was actually a beggar so even the hospital did not provide the proper care it was only one day after the accident that the chaplain of la Sagrada Familia recognize who Gaudi was but by then it was too late Gaudi died

Two days later as an honor to his legacy and his dedication to the church Gaudi was buried in the crypt of la Sagrada família even if you are not of the Catholic faith I can tell you that this church is literally an otherworldly experience you come in here you really

Feel the energy from the church you feel just excited and happy that was my feeling when I went in this church this is probably one of the most emotional feelings that I’ve had walking into any church just a grandeur of the architecture and just the colors that

Were beaming in with the beautiful day and the beautiful stained glass it really did make me reflect on everything as a whole including life and how beautiful nature is and just appreciate life in general just so excited and happy and grateful above all to be at this beautiful beautiful place so I hope
