Barcelna’s famus Segrada Familia is finally set t get a building licence,mre than 130 years after wrk n the still uncmpleted church began.
Cnstructin n the UNESCO Wrld Heritage basilica(长方形基督教堂),which is Barcelna’s mst visited turist attractin,began in 1882 based n a design by architect Francisc Lzan.Hwever,when he stepped dwn,architect Antni Gaudi tk ver the design in 1883.The building wn’t be finished until 2026—ne hundred years after the architect was killed by a streetcar in the city.His bdy was buried in a rm under the flr f the Sagrada Familia.
