The Sagrada Familia Cathedral, the symbol of the city of Barcelona, Spain, attracts all the eyes that come and go from the city. Its overall design is inspired by natural caves, mountains, flowers, animals, etc. Due to lack of funds, it was still unfinished for more than 100 years, and the top of the tower was covered with scaffolding, and everyone was looking forward to the moment when it was topped. Not long ago, the news that the Sagrada Familia was about to be lit up and completed made everyone excited and excited, and at the same time remembered the great architect Monsieur Gaudí, whose last work and wish were finally fulfilled.
In 1872, the Barcelona bookseller Josip. Malia. After returning from a trip to Italy, Berkabea had the idea of building a temple of atonement where decadent people could pray to the gods for forgiveness. Construction of the Sagrada Familia began in 1882 and was taken over in 1883 by the 31-year-old Gaudí, who designed the entire church building as a "Bible" that could be carved out of reliefs. The three facades of the church depict the grief that arose from the birth, crucifixion, and glory of Jesus. The birth façade was created by Gaudí during his lifetime, and the façade is based on the theme of Jesus and the birth, expressing joy and celebration. The birth façade has three arches, representing the three major Christian doctrines: faith, hope, and love. Facing west is the crucifixion façade, facing south is the glory façade. Each façade has 4 bell towers representing the Twelve Apostles. There are also 6 clock towers in the center of the building, 4 of which represent the 4 authors of the Gospels and the other 2 represent Jesus and the Virgin Mary.
One summer night in 1926, Gaudí died in a car accident, and the Sagrada Familia was his last gift to the world. Gaudí then rested in peace in the catacombs of the Sagrada Familia, which he had personally designed.
Entered through the Passion Gate with engraved code text, the interior of the church is composed of curves and surfaces, and various variations of spiral-cone parabolas are combined into a rhythmic and dynamic architectural style. All the columns resemble tree trunks, branches and eyes, all inspired by nature's design of Gaudí, and the main body of the church is unknown in the Gothic style. But the pale yellow, milky white columns and stone walls that show the simplicity of "Gaudí" are outlined by the black wrought iron curves to create one wonderful space after another. Slow down and experience the color as a low-key supporting role. Looking up at the top of the church, sunlight is projected through several small light holes, and the tall trunks of the trees extend out of the branches to support the tall spires. The stained glass windows reflect the colorful flowers, making the whole church full of dreamy colors, like a kaleidoscope world.
