Modernismo/Gracia tour
Today we went on a modernist tour along Paisseg de Gracia, one of the most emblematic streets in Barcelona, students learned about Casa Batilló considered one of Gaudi's masterpieces which is decorated with a colorful mosaic made of broken ceramic tile and the roof has the shape of a dragon. Casa Amatiler and Casa Lleó Morera are the only buildings of the block awarded Barcelona's town council's Arts Building Annual Award. Today we had a lot of history behind each building that makes us want to live here forever.
