Description

Your journey into the wonders of the Sagrada Familia begins as you meet your expert guide outside this world-renowned basilica. Before entering, you’ll marvel at the intricate details of the Nativity and Passion Facades, each telling a different chapter of Christ’s life through Gaudí’s unique architectural style. Your guide will explain the deep symbolism and innovative techniques that make this basilica one of the most extraordinary buildings in the world. As you step inside, be prepared for a breathtaking experience. The interior is bathed in a mesmerizing glow as natural light filters through the spectacular stained-glass windows, creating a kaleidoscope of colors. You’ll walk through the grand nave, where towering columns stretch toward the ceiling, designed to resemble a forest canopy. You’ll also explore the altar area, where the magnificent hanging crucifix adds a sense of serenity and spiritual depth to the space. Finally, you’ll visit the museum and Gaudí’s workshop area, where original sketches, models, and artifacts offer a deeper understanding of the architect’s creative process. **Not suitable for wheelchair users.
