It just occurred to me that this is the first time I have flown to a place other than the United States, China and Taiwan since she was born. It is also one of the few city trips we have taken without driving in all these years. This is a trip exclusively for us mother and daughter. As for choosing Barcelona, ​​yes, it is a city occupied by tourists, but as tourists, we also feel particularly at ease among such a crowd. We shuttled through the narrow Gothic alleys, touching the stone walls that are hundreds of years old. Not far away on the bluestone streets, high-tech corneal photos were sold as art. The ancient bell tower sounded a faint sound, echoing in the winding alleys. At a corner, there is another magnificent cathedral, Or the squares and squares surrounded by time, the Catalan-style food stalls, accompanied by the guitar singing of street artists. The Miró Foundation stands on the high mountainside, recording Miró's art in an all-white exhibition hall that meets imagination, while Picasso's museum is strangely located in an ancient stone building. How discordant, but this is exactly the impression Barcelona gives me: time here is like the world described by Picasso, hundreds of years intertwined, between the new and the old, a black line can be dissected and reorganized. In my aesthetics, both the new and the old Barcelona are too complicated, but this does not affect my appreciation of her style along the way, so ostentatious, so brilliant, so eye-catching. In fact, in Barcelona In the past few days, I have been thinking of Taipei. The alleys are so similar, the bakeries and fruit stalls in the winding alleys; the rows of apartment buildings, the small balconies with greenery, the rows of small shops on the first floor of the buildings, the mixed residential and commercial urban pattern; and the traffic-congested roads, the red, orange, yellow and green MRT, which is like the Taipei MRT. It feels familiar to use it and soon becomes the best means of transportation for our city travel. The slightly humid wind, the comfortable temperature, and the blue sky with clouds are like Taipei in spring: only the Western classical buildings that can be seen everywhere, and the spires that point into the sky everywhere remind me that this is the flamboyant Barcelona. Tourism is obviously the main artery of this city. I am very proud of this city. I am moved by the city's efforts to protect cultural heritage and promote art, even if these efforts are for economic reasons. Because of these efforts, Barcelona has a unique beauty where classic and modern coexist everywhere. Ancient monuments under restoration can be seen everywhere, and art galleries and museums are scattered throughout the city. The genius architect Gaudi is the most respected figure in this city, and Picasso and Miró, two masters of modern art, each have their own corner here. Cleaning staff in bright green uniforms are busy shuttling around in every corner of the city all day to keep the city clean, and large recycling bins bear witness to the efforts to protect the environment. The police are also very present, although the problem of pickpockets is said to be still the biggest nightmare for tourists. English is available everywhere, Apple pay allows us to travel freely even if we are penniless. In this city, we mix among the crowds, walking or stopping. I don’t think I care that we look like tourists. After all, this is a city that breathes for tourists. In fact, there are only a few major attractions that make me feel bored by tourists. Most of Barcelona makes me feel that it is a great city. I hope that San Francisco can restore such vitality one day, and I hope that Taipei can also preserve the art and culture that once existed here one day and become a city with memories and stories.
