However, it is not only Gaudí’s work which draws international crowds and entices explorers to venture further into this city ‘museum’.
From the Torre Agbar (Agbar Tower), a 38-story skyscraper designed by French architect Jean Nouvel and influenced by the nearby mountain Montserrat; to the Santa Catarina Market, a building designed by architects Enric Miralles and Benedetta Tagliabue and whose colorful mosaic cover was designed by artist Tonia Comella; to the massive solar panels located at the Forum Esplanade, an urban project designed by architects José Antonio Martínez Lapeña and Elías Torres; Barcelona is filled with examples of innovative architectural achievements.
