  Bike ride to La Sagrada Familia www.beautydriven.net If you get a chance to visit Barcelona make sure you visit the Basilica  Sagrada Família it is a site to behold.  I hired a bike driver and and he gave me a tour on the way over to the site. I  recommend this for sure. The  Basílica i Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Família , [ a ]  otherwise known as  Sagrada Família , is a church under construction in the  Eixample  district of  Barcelona ,  Catalonia , Spain. It is the largest unfinished Catholic church in the world. Designed by the  Catalan  architect  Antoni Gaudí  (1852–1926), in 2005 his work on Sagrada Família was added to an existing (1984)  UNESCO   World Heritage Site , "Works of Antoni Gaudí". [ 5 ]  On 7 November 2010,  Pope Benedict XVI  consecrated the church and proclaimed it a  minor basilica . [ 6 ] [ 7 ] [ 8 ] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sagrada_Fam%C3%AD...
