G&uuml;ell Park is full of fairy tales, and Gaudi blends nature and architecture seamlessly. The winding paths, colorful mosaic benches, and roofs like dragon&#39;s back, each detail is ingenious. The high point of the park has an excellent view, overlooking the entire Barcelona, and the scenery of the city and the sea and sky is intoxicating. Walking in the park, it feels like traveling in a dream picture, and from time to time you can meet the performances of street artists, adding a lot of life. It is a place that can enjoy the scenery and feel the artistic imagination.

One of Gaudi&#39;s three-piece suits is still worth a visit. The gold ticket has a tablet and Chinese explanation and the last VR plus no need to queue up. I feel that the price/performance ratio is quite good. You can understand more deeply.

Looking at Picasso&#39;s works again, I suddenly understood. The primitive, bold and strong things deeply attracted me and stimulated my sensory nerves! Picasso used various painting methods to express his own emotions casually. Basically, it was not purely aesthetic, but rational and abstract. He reconstructed and combined objects to bring people newer and deeper feelings!
