Park Guell Located on Mount Pelada in Barcelona, Spain, Park Güell is a masterpiece of modernist-style gardens designed by Gaudí and designated a World Heritage Site in 1984. Funded by wealthy businessman Güell, the park blends nature and art with colorful mosaic sculptures of lizards, wavy benches of colorful tiles, and winding colonnades. The park's Hundred Columns Hall is supported by 84 terracotta columns, and the top platform offers panoramic views of the Mediterranean and the city. Advance booking is recommended to avoid the midday heat and explore Gaudi's unique architectural aesthetic.
