Visited this a few months ago, somehow having never heard of it as an American (in the way that I learned about Notre Dame and St. Peter’s and Westminster Abbey) and it surpassed the hype far more than any European famous attraction I’ve ever been to.

I first glimpsed it while doing a touristy bike tour my first day in Barcelona and it’s hard to convey how surreal it is, like a video game’s final level glitching into its tutorial stage.



Lots of experience with video games glitching, but not sure how your analogy applies here. Can you elaborate some more?


Not the person you’re replying to, but I’m sure they mean something like, imagine the tutorial level in a normal town, but the boss’s final lair from the Catholic moon has glitched into the middle of the tutorial town.


Yes, like on the old Final Fantasy Super Nintendo games.
