Sagrada Familia Entradas y Tours

• With your Sagrada Familia audio guide, discover the significance of the interior columns that stretch up to the ceiling and branch out like forest trees to support the structure. 

• Reflect on Gaudi’s belief that nature and spirituality go hand in hand - that you can never be closer to God than in nature. A self-guided Sagrada Familia tour allows you to quietly lose yourself in this transcendent space.  

• With your Gaudi Barcelona tickets, gain further insight into the way in which Gaudi designed how the light would enter the nave of the basilica. The beautiful patterns and colors that reflect off of the walls and ceilings, coming from thoughtfully placed windows, accentuate a sense of harmony and invite introspection.

• Your Sagrada Familia guided tour brings to light the details of Gaudi’s cathedral, explaining the intricate methods in which the stained glass windows were made and the meanings behind them. 

When most people think of Barcelona, the Sagrada Familia springs to mind. This is an iconic image all around the world. Take in all the awe-inspiring beauty on one of the best Sagrada Familia tours; make the moment last forever. Here are some ideas for the best shots for that preserving your memorable moment: 

• Nativity façade from Plaça de Gaudí: The best angle for the “big picture” is from the square opposite, as you can see the legendary Basilica rising above (and reflected in) the lake below. 

• Passion & Death: The haunting Golgotha scene by Josep Maria Subirachs. 

• Tortoise at the base of the column: Look at the bottom of the two main columns before you and you will see a tortoise and a turtle. Together they represent land and sea. In the same way as stone freezes time, so will your photo capture these carved animals forever.
