BARCELONA - Mançana de la Discòrdia


A series of extraordinary houses by Montaner, Gaudí and Puig i Cadafalch comprise the Mançana de la Discòrdia (Block of Discord) on the Passeig de Grácia between Aragó and Consell de Cent. Information and passes for the Ruta Modernista can be obtained from the first floor of Casa Lléo Morera at number 35. Gaudí's Casa Batlló at number 43 looks rather like an underwater grotto, with blue-green tiles on the façade, frog-faced balconies and a reptilian roof. Ruta Modernista pass-holders are permitted into the main apartment.
