Under construction since 1882, the Gaudi designed Basilica de la Sagrada Familia is anticipated to be completed in 2026. Delays have been caused due to a variety of factors including lack of funding, a fire that destroyed some of the architectural plans, the difficulty of the design and more. Once complete, it is reported that La Sagrada Familia will be the world's tallest church.

We decided not to take another tour inside La Sagrada Familia during our recent visit to Barcelona. However, since it is nearing completion, we didn't want to pass up at least seeing the exterior. Maybe on our next visit it will be crane-free?
If you're twenty-two, physically fit, hungry to learn and be better, I urge you to travel - as far and as widely as possible. Sleep on floors if you have to. Find out how other people live and eat and cook. Learn from them - wherever you go. - Anthony Bourdain
