Sagrada familia

 A visit to Spain for any architect is incomplete without a visit to Gaudí 's greatest work - the Sagrada Familia. It was surreal for me as I approached the grand church building .... which I have studied as part of curriculum in architecture school.




The fact that the building is still under construction after more than 140 years after laying the cornerstone is astounding.

La Roca shopping village

 La Roca shopping Village is located in the tranquil Vallès Oriental region, in the outskirts of Barcelona...a good 45 min drive from the city.

The Village offers pedestrianised shopping experience in an open-air Village, where more than 150 boutiques sit along tree-lined streets. Each boutique shop is in a typical Mediterranean Spanish Architecture.

Here, boutiques from renowned Catalan, Spanish and international luxury brands, as well as emerging local talent – offering attractive discounts off the recommended retail price – sit alongside restaurants and cafés.

Plus, an array of guest services, including a multilingual Concierge, Personal Shoppers, Hands-free Shopping and La Roca Village from home, are there to make your visit extraordinary. Truly a unique shopping experience!
