The ceiling is truly remarkable to behold. |
The Crucifix is definitely interesting. Our group was divided on its beauty. Overall, I like the portrayal of Christ hanging in agony. |
The columns are designed to resemble palm trees extended toward Heaven. |

The unique stained glass windows create glorious natural lighting unlike anything I've ever seen. |
It's quite difficult to describe how tall this church is! |
Natural light, stained glass windows and a great deal of intricacy contribute to the unique feel. |
A larger-than-life spiral staircase |
I couldn't get enough of the windows. |
Architect Antoni Guadi's cause is being pursued for beatification. His tomb is located in the basilica. |

Excellent pictures, Steve. Nice work! Thanks for sharing them with us. I love Sagrada Familia!
Careful; SF is like a gateway drug; pretty soon one might find themselves liking other modern religious buildings! ;)
