Of course, the architecture of the famous Catalan, Gaudi, is one of the main attractions. The marvellous Sagrada Familia is the highlight, with its amazing unfinished facade that depicts numerous biblical scenes in impressive detail. This style of architecture, known as Catalan Modernism, or <em>Modernisme<\/em>, is seen in other architectural landmarks around the city. Indeed, Casa Batllo and Casa Mila are two more Gaudi masterpieces to admire on a trip to Barcelona. In the hills above the city, the Temple of the Sacred Heart of Jesus stands atop Mount Tibidabo, an impressive example of Neo-Gothic architecture. Finally, the\u00a0<em>Barri Gotic<\/em> is where you&#8217;ll find the charming remnants of the old gothic city, complete with an impressive 13th-century cathedral.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Budapest_Hungary\"><\/span>Budapest, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/us\/europe\/western-europe\/hungary\">Hungary<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4927\" src=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Budapest-BLOG-architecture.png\" alt=\"Budapest: Amazing Architecture\" width=\"690\" height=\"360\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Budapest is one of the world&#8217;s most impressive gothic cities.
