Jardins de Rosa de LuxemburgThese Gardens are a wonderful green space for the neighbourhood in which they are located and it also serves as a luxurious playground for the school and nursery that is situated right next to it.
The gardens have different terraces that are connected through small stairways that are needed due to differences in height. Also one has a great view over the Carmel hill from the area. The park has a clear orientation towards forest vegetation, which makes it a nice space to rest in the shade and to be outside with your children and dogs.

Gaudí's dead

Not much people know how Gaudí died. From what it known he was hit by a tram in front of Sagrada Familia when he crossed the street aiming to go to the construction side of his masterpiece.

He lay in the hospital "Hospital de la Santa Creu", but people didn't recognise the famous artist because of his neglected appereance.

Only three days later, a friend of him found him in this hospital and asked for a private room for him. The same day, 10 July 1926 he died. 

He was buried in the midst of La Sagrada Família.
