Et must se i Barcelona. Dette er en virkelig flot kirke. Den er gratis at besøge. Og mens man nyder stilheden, kan man gå rundt og se de flotte farverige vinduer og malerier. Købe et lys eller sidder på bænken og bede. For 4 € kan man gå op i tårnet til en flot udsigt. Udenfor kan man gå gratis op af nogle trapper rundt om kirken og se ud over byen og det Tivoli der er tæt på. Følg mig for flere tips om Barcelona eller andre steder i Europa

Walk up the stairs and enter the crypt chapel. After the visit, head towards the left side of the chapel and pay €5 at the machine for an elevator ride up to the upper level of the church to get a stunning panoramic view of barcelona. If you're not afraid of heights, look for the staircase behind and climb to the upper viewing platform (limited space and not for the faint hearted) to the base of the statute of jesus christ. Breathtaking views! Make the same way down and the elevator would exit out into the main church.
