Today I'll show you a different architectural style. It's not the kind I like but maybe some of you will like it.
If not, then you'll at least learn some new stuff.
Our main reason for visiting Barcelona in April was to attend the concert of the great musician Roger Waters. Driving force of Pink Floyd, in case you don't recognize the name.
But that's another story.
Palau Sant Jordi is the largest indoor sporting arena in Spain and is part of the Olympic Ring complex located in Barcelona, Catalonia. Designed by the Japanese architect Arata Isozaki.
The Palau Sant Jordi was one of the main venues of the 1992 Summer Olympics Today it is used for all kinds of indoor sports events, music concerts, and other cultural activities, due to its great flexibility.
Gladiators above the main entrance to the stadium.
Here's the St. George Palace.
Olympic spirit.
Fountain with waterfall.
Bell at the entrance to Olympic ring.
Communications tower and the tubular lamps by the promenade.
Outer stadium facade after the concert.
These two photos from the concert are needed to recover your vision after boring photos of the Olimpic ring.
I have no clue about architecture but for me, the old center of the city of Barcelona is way better.
I would really like to hear the Gaudi's opinion.
Have a great weekend, my friends.
Hello friend, The old part of Barcelona is for me the cradle of architecture, since it has incredible facades of many years that contains a lot of history and culture, together with its beautiful vegetation form a great landscape to enjoy, the great works of Gaudi. The Palau Sant Jordi, I think it is very visionary but at the same time it does not have any similarity to the architecture of Gaudi, it will be because of the habit of seeing his works so full of life, but as for all there are different tastes, I am still betting on the work of Gaudi, and only in the concerts gives a lot of life to the Palau Sant Jordi, greetings and I really liked your publication and learned something new @oldtimer
I really want to visit Barcelona and walk through those streets ande joy the cities
