Wow! Gothic?


I've heard of Gaudi's La Sagrada Familia described as "neo-Gothic" or evolution of traditional Gothic form.

Any travel plans for you in near future?
Japan is a nice and safe place to visit but with the nuclear disaster, there's probably gonna be a reduction in tourism...
I was planning on going back there next year but I may have to wait and see... :sweat:

You were right, Barcelona rocks. Antonio Gaudi's works are amazing.

Yeah, I didn't know that much about Gaudi prior to my visit, but I can see why he's Barcelona's most famous son.

I have some more pics of his work that'll I post later.

Here's another set of pics from Paris.
This time, its Sacre Couer, which was shown in some parts of Nodame Cantabile and With Love jdoramas...(it might also be shown in Triangle but I cant remember)
All photos taken using SLT-A33 including the panoramas...

Panoramic View

to get to the dome, we had to traverse some pretty narrow circular stairwellls

View from one of the domes of Sacre Coeur (Eiffel Tower in background)

Sacre Coeur

Shot from different angle...

I wasnt able to take any photos inside the basilica as there was a Mass and photography was prohibited.

Great photos...I've been fortunate enough to visit there as well...there are always a lot of artists and people in general taking in the view of Paris from the Sacre Coeur's high vantage point.

Yup, there's a lot of ppl hanging around at this place - just absorbing the view overlooking the city...

Yeah, we came expecting the worst of french hospitality :hehe: (as none of us speak french) but we were pleasantly surprised as the ppl we met were quite polite.
I guess things have changed for the better :sweat:
