Prominent landmark of Barcelona and foremost Gaudí heritage, charm of the Sagrada Familia is that it will not be finished for decades to come.
The temple/church, dedicated to the Holy Family as it name implies, is unique not only for still being under construction (some even claim that it will never be finished; the goal is to finish it in 2026). It uses geometrical shapes, elements of nature that can be appreciated in all sections of the enormous building still without a roof. In the end, there should be 12 towers, each of which representing an apostle - at present, there are only 8. The central dome will eventually have a tall tower dedicated to Jesus, with an enormous cross, accompanied by a Virgin Mary tower, and four additional ones for the four apostles.
