A Fire in Sagrada Familia

When I read this news in the newspaper, I was a bit worried. Thinking is it totally ruined by the fire? Is the accident serious? Luckily, it's just burnt down some furnitures in the church. The Police has caught a man suspected to set the fire. I have been there few years ago in a summer holiday when I was studying in university. That was my first time in Spain. The memory is a bit vague to me right now. I still remember the moment in such stunning architecture, although I didn't take any photos there (How silly that my DC ran out of battery). As an architectural, art and cultural icon in Barcelona, It would be so bad to hear such news. This is such a great treasure that Mr. Gaudí left to us.

Salute to señor Antoni Gaudí!

The report said the work for finishing the church has 15 yeas to go. I wish I will go there again that year to celebrate the great work of architecture.
