Sights to See: Casa Mila





Casa Mila (La Pedrera).  Casa Mila, also known as La Pedrera, is located on Passeig de Gracia.  Towards the top of the avenue, Casa Mila stands tall and definitely sticks out.  Its structure is much different than most buildings on the avenue.  When my mom and grandma came to visit, we went to Casa Mila and went to the roof and then took a tour of the floor that is opened to the public.  Of the two Gaudi buildings on Passeig de Gracia, Casa Batlo and Casa Mila, I enjoyed Casa Mila more before of the roof.  It is amazing that something built 100 years ago is so Modern and abstract.  I cannot even imagine what the public thought about both buildings when they both opened.  Here are some of the pictures that I took when I went up there. Enjoy!
