Anyways, where was I? Oh yeah Gaudi's Cathedral was cool. Planned about 200 years ago and carved by Gaudi it was never completed and to this day is still under construction. Originally designed to represent the 12 Apostles, the building is truly unique in its look. The explanation, not surprisingly, was that Gaudi was a bit of a heroin addict. Of course the materials to construct it have been replaced by a cheaper concrete and artists are contracted who can emulate his very cubist/organic look.

Here's a detail of the amount off work and detail Gaudi put into this monument.
