Okay, we’ll lay off the Gaudí wonders after this. But, even as we ventured over to Italy and Greece, we couldn’t stop thinking about one more monument. Casa Batlló is a surrealist dream of undulating curves, vibrant mosaics, and skeletal balconies. (Basically, it stands in complete opposition to the Parthenon’s uniformity.) Often referred to as the “House of Bones,” this imaginative masterpiece, born of Gaudí’s brilliant mind, captures the essence of Catalan modernism and is worth a wander through, especially while daydreaming.
