The neighbourhood Sagrada Familia is of course best known for its same named basilica. The basilica's construction work started in 1881 and have not been finished yet. It is estimated that the giant basilica would be ready in 2026 – after 145 years of construction.

But besides the humongous Gaudí architecture, people also should go visit the Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau. At the other end of Avinguda de Gaudí, this Modernist architecture was designed by Lluís Domènech i Montaner, and was declared as an UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997.
La Sagrada Familia area is vibrant, but still far away from the touristic and buzzling city spots. In this neighbourhood, you will find local lifestyle, laid-back and calm atmosphere, lots of small parks, as well as plenty of authentic Catalan restaurants and cafés.
