 nap time by parsix
I am the clasical example of someone who is always in a rush. I remember once in Miami a security guard at the building I worked stop me and ask: " Excuse me, but why is it that you are always running in your way out?" and I instinctively answered " Because if not I will be late. " and he reply: "Late where?" and I had no answer.
The nature of my job demands precision down to the second, and probably that has repercuted in my personal life. But lately I try to take life easy... very few things are really worth being in stress...

 Parc Guell by kazander
When you enter, there is a grand staircase with fountains and the city's mascot, the mosaic lizard greeting you. Follow the stairs up and you will come to huge doric columns and an area where there was supposed to be a marketplace. Supported by the columns, above this area, is a vast plaza ringed by the famous tiled, curving benches. To the side and back of the plaza are these unique natural stone pillars. Beyond this is a vast natural park with winding pathways through wooded areas. At a very high point in the park is a little tower with 3 crosses on it, it's a great place to view the city from.
The section I have pictured here was my favorite. It was so organic looking, like an extension of the landscape. Leave a Comment Phone: 93-317-39-74Directions: Metro; line 3. Lesseps Station, then follow the street signs.

 Barcelona from the 3 crosses,
without the climb! by adelinemmc
Have your stroll from the 3 crosses through the park, always going down and exit via the main entrance, then walk down to Lesseps or the bus stops. Much nicer way to see it all in the sun, without breaking into a sweat! Leave a Comment Directions: Metro; line 3. Do NOT go to Lesseps Station, instead travel one more station to Vallcarca station and follow the signs, there's a series of escalators that will do all the hard work for you!

This park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, was built by Antoni Gaudi. Under Gaudi, the construction took place from 1900 to 1914 and was originally built for Mr. Eusebi Güell as a private residential garden. However, the park became public property in 1923. Although the park was never completed by Gaudi, it still remains one of his most fascinating creations. It is perhaps the most visited place in Barcelona and it is always crowded with tourists. Entry is free and one can visit here after a days walking and seeing around to take rest or just for sheer pleasure of seeing yet another Gaudi marvel. The park is decorated with palm trees and rock structures. By using the rock designs Gaudi wanted to use nature as much as possible. The ceramic designs on the ceiling of the structures are also made from recycled ceramic and glass pieces. Although the park is always crowded with tourists, the park still remains a calm and serene place to be in the city.
