Introduction

Park Güell is a fairy-tale, whimsical park in Barcelona—another work by the genius architect Gaudí, famous for its brilliant mosaics, fanciful forms and nature-integrated design. It is another masterpiece of Gaudí's architectural art, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a dreamlike spot in Barcelona not to be missed. Park Güell was commissioned by Gaudí's patron, the entrepreneur Güell, and designed and built by Gaudí in the early 20th century; the original idea was an upscale residential district (later unsuccessful, it became a park). Gaudí gave full rein to his worship of nature, boundless creativity and brilliant color, turning the park into a wonderland like a fairy tale. The park's most famous, most photogenic features are the unique forms inlaid with brightly colored, finely pieced mosaic tiles: the two gingerbread-house-like quirky gatehouses at the entrance, the coiled giant mosaic lizard fountain (the park's symbol), and the famous wavy bench inlaid with colorful mosaics, undulating like a great dragon, set on a broad terrace overlooking the panorama of Barcelona and the sea. Besides, the park has stone colonnades that seem to grow naturally (like stone waves or a forest), winding paths, and green landscapes cleverly blended into the hillside—everywhere full of Gaudí's unique imagination and brilliant color, dreamlike and delightful. Strolling Park Güell, admiring Gaudí's brilliant dreamlike mosaics and quirky forms, and overlooking Barcelona's panorama is a uniquely fairy-tale Barcelona experience.
