Mosaic covered buildings, steps and sculptures. The design of the park was done by Antoni Gaudi, the renowned architect of Sagrada Familia.
The park is a reflection of Gaudi's artistic abilities, many later reflected in the Sagrada Familia. There is also a Gaudi Museum here which we were unfortunately unable to visit do to limited time. You can also walk around the park, it's quite large and offers great views of Barcelona city.
