			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Anybody knows the meaning of  &#8220;GAU&#8221;? In Taiwanese language, Gau means  &#8220;very smart/very clever&#8221; . Normally people will say &#8221; Lu Jio Gau eh&#8221;&#8230;.&#8221;You are very smart&#8221;</p>
<p>And so today, I&#8217;m going to bring you guys 4 years back the memory lane&#8230;&#8230;when i 1st saw the immeasurable work by Mr.Antonio Gaudi, who basically had greatly influenced on the outlook of Barcelona with his amazing works.</p>
<p>Gaudi, what a great name to start off with. His name must have meanings like super smart or some sort, because when i saw his work,  it was  so amazing that i basically ran out of words to describe.</p>
<p>For example,</p>
<p>The Casa Batllo, situated on La Pedrera,Barcelona</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-778" title="dsc02060" src="http://chloeling.com/v2/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dsc02060-600x450.jpg" alt="dsc02060" width="600" height="450" /></p>
<p>Amazing!!!! After 4 years, I&#8217;m still so attracted to this photo!!</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-779" title="dsc02056" src="http://chloeling.com/v2/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dsc02056-600x450.jpg" alt="dsc02056" width="600" height="450" /></p>
<p>Mr.Gaudi Antonio built 2 of these houses, the other one is located on Passeig de Gracia. Both serving as a home + apartments.  Most of his work involved curved structures, twisted irons &amp; organic-like forms.  @ this moment, i was kinda glad i didn&#8217;t study architecture, because i don&#8217;t think i will be able to construct a building like this!!</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-780" title="dsc02058" src="http://chloeling.com/v2/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dsc02058-454x600.jpg" alt="dsc02058" width="454" height="600" /></p>
<p>That&#8217;s me 4 years ago!! Looking like an idiot tourist with a view cam hanging on me like that!!</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-781" title="dsc02064" src="http://chloeling.com/v2/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dsc02064-450x600.jpg" alt="dsc02064" width="450" height="600" /></p>
<p>Further down the road, that&#8217;s where the other building is situated, on Passeig de Gracia. Can you tell me how unique this building is ? The balustrade on the balcony really looks like some animal fossils! And if you notice the 1st floor, the facade of the balcony really looks like it&#8217;s been built with bones! The colour used makes me think of the ocean with all the marine lives in it!! Amazing work!!</p>
<p>Next, we were being brought to a wonderland park called, Park Guell.</p>
<p>Nothing in here is like an amusement park, but, the designer makes it feel exactly like one!  How? Like this!</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-782" title="dsc02038" src="http://chloeling.com/v2/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dsc02038-450x600.jpg" alt="dsc02038" width="450" height="600" /></p>
<p>The shape is so playful and the colour so vibrant!!</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-783" title="dsc02039" src="http://chloeling.com/v2/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dsc02039-600x450.jpg" alt="dsc02039" width="600" height="450" /></p>
<p>The entrance to the park.  For some reason, i really think there&#8217;s a kinda magical feel to this park. Is it because of the shape and the colourful tiles used?</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-786" title="dsc02043" src="http://chloeling.com/v2/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dsc02043-600x450.jpg" alt="dsc02043" width="600" height="450" /></p>
<p>Ceiling details on the entrance building. Beautiful! Cantik! Ipoh yoh!</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-784" title="dsc02053" src="http://chloeling.com/v2/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dsc02053-600x450.jpg" alt="dsc02053" width="600" height="450" /></p>
<p>Such a beautiful park, must pose pose a bit!! You know why i have the scarf  all over me like that? Because i don&#8217;t wanna get burnt under the hot sun, i think the temperature was around 45c!!</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-785" title="dsc02033" src="http://chloeling.com/v2/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dsc02033-600x450.jpg" alt="dsc02033" width="600" height="450" /></p>
<p>If I&#8217;ve not mistaken, one season of American Next Top model, took up the tunnel as a runway for their final show!!</p>
<p>And last but not least, we have the ?</p>
<p>La Sagrada Familia !!</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-789" title="dsc020092" src="http://chloeling.com/v2/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dsc020092-450x600.jpg" alt="dsc020092" width="450" height="600" /></p>
<p>A giant temple under construction since 1882, needs a period of 30-80 years to complete! When i was there, it was still under construction, and if memory serves me right, i was told they still need about 2 years to complete. So i guess it should be fully constructed by now!!! Time to go back and pay a visit??</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-790" title="dsc02000" src="http://chloeling.com/v2/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dsc02000-600x450.jpg" alt="dsc02000" width="600" height="450" /></p>
<p>Run out of words to describe how amazing this giant temple is!</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-791" title="dsc01998" src="http://chloeling.com/v2/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dsc01998-450x600.jpg" alt="dsc01998" width="450" height="600" /></p>
<p>The interior of the giant temple. Again, amazing!!</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-792" title="dsc02008" src="http://chloeling.com/v2/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dsc02008-450x600.jpg" alt="dsc02008" width="450" height="600" /></p>
<p>Can someone tell me how do they construct these details?</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-793" title="dsc02025" src="http://chloeling.com/v2/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/dsc02025-450x600.jpg" alt="dsc02025" width="450" height="600" /></p>
<p>This is totally amazing to me. A must see if you were to go Barcelona!!! A truely magnificent building!!</p>
<p>Now that I&#8217;ve been fully inspired&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">Time to go back to my bloody work!!!</span></span></p>
