la sangrada familia
My husband and I took a trip to Barcelona this year and visited this cathedral. I wanted a book that detailed all the areas you were not really able to see at the ground level. I also wanted a bit of the history and explaination of the building. This book gave me everything I was looking for. If you want very detailed pictures of just about everything on the facade, this is the book.

Beautiful Photos
This book has beautiful photos of the Sagrada Familia. I gave it as a gift to my brother after my visit to Barcelona. I wanted him to see all the details and statues of the beautiful unfinished Cathedral and there's no way a basic digital camera can do any justice to it. This book brings the Sagrada Familia to life. It's a fantastic keepsake after a visit to the Cathedral or a great way to share the glory of it with friends.

Gaudi cathedral
I saw this cathedral when I was in Spain and it is absolutely breathtaking! I could just stand there and look up with my mouth open. You cannot see all the detail from the ground or take pictures of it so I bought this book at a little shop nearby. My friend wished she had one after we came back so I was able to find it on Amazon--you always can! It shows all the painstaking detail all over the cathedral and gives a history of it's construction. Marvelous book and one of two special places I saw on my trip. Go to Barcelona and see it! HB
