From early days

When traveling by train was civilized.

Welcome to Madrid

The front door at Atocha.

Atocha

The place for trains.

Allegories abound

Pretty impressive for the agriculture ministry building.

This is the modern

Architecture with grace.

Look up

Always with the light.

More

Head spinning yet?

Wear your shades

This place amps up the wattage.

Lit

Can't escape the colors.

Pay attention

It gets better.

Going for the blue

Never a dull shot.

Information overload

Wrap your brain around this.

Do I see rainbow?

Who let all that light in?

Oh my God

Be amazed be amazed be amazed.

Very sad

Rough day for the Christians.

Sacred art

With embellishments.

A visual feast

Just need more eyes to take it all in.

Still under construction

But coming down the home stretch, finally.

Getting late

But still plenty to see…

Chimney, Gaudi style

Dress up your chimney. You'll be glad.

I smoke

I'm a chimney.

Living the good life

All Gaudi, all the time.

Enter here

Just your average Gaudi front gate.

More Gaudi

No straight lines here.

To the roof

Always an interesting trip.

Airshaft, if you will

Interior view.

Stay warm, my friends

Maybe add some cushions, though.

Nothing squared off here

Gaudi's not a T-square kind of guy.

Bright

My stairway is (way) brighter than yours.

Into the world of Gaudi

Be amazed.

Food porn

No one goes hungry here.

I'll take a kilo

…Of everything.

This little piggy…

Went to market, to market…

Chillin'

Quiet time, finally, on Las Ramblas.

As the sun slowly sets…

Las Ramblas just cranks it up a notch.

Local hero

Columbus looks toward his destiny.

Plenty of shade

Makes a walk up Las Ramblas a pleasure.

A ramble down Las Ramblas

Never a loss for company.

Named for some royals

And a fine plaza it is.

A royal hangout

Plaza Reial, for your eating, drinking and fun needs.

This old house

Living grand, once upon a time.

This little light of mine

Batteries not included.

Squeeze it

Car? What car?

The other neighborhood

El Ravel is the other Gotico.

Dragon light

The umbrella, I must admit, is a mystery.

Diagonal uptown

A few blocks and you can skip generations.

Along Diagonal

A bit grander here on Barcelona's grand street.

On Diagonal

Start here.

Starting early

Not even completely dark yet at the Cocodrilo Club.

The cathedral

Not to be confused with Sagrada Familia.
