Palau del Música

¡Hello!
Yesterday it was still raining in the morning. We visited Barcelona and the beautiful Palau del Música:
it is a magnificent concert hall, which is build in 'Art Nouveau' style. It was disigned by the great architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner. 
This is what David Mackay, professor of natural Philosophy at the University of Cambrige, said
about this place:
The concert hall is one of the most beautiful in the world (...) without exaggeration. It is one of its most important architectural treasures. Its pace, simple, complex, mystical and paradoxical, defies accurate description.
How much we wanted to visit the concert hall, we coudn't because it was to expensive ( 15). However we saw the hall and the cafetaria (where some pupils bought a muffin), this was already breathtaking. We couldn't stay for a long time, because we had to rush to the casa Mila to be on time for our guided tour.

All in all we liked the Palau del Música a lot, firstly because it was very pretty and also because we weren't in the rain for a while.

Greetings from Spain
