Porter's Lodge Pavilion
- The main entrance to Park Güell has an impressive facade and presents a stunning view of the work of art inside.
- The ceramic tiled stone wall and palm leaf shaped iron gates are just a trailer of the nature inspired architectural marvels, one would witness ahead.
- There are two pavilions with beautiful tile shards mosaic roofs on either side of the gate.
The Dragon Stairway
- An artistic twin flight of steps rises up from the entrance to the Hypostyle Room. Divided into three sections, the stairway has a fountain running along its edge and each landing on the way up is marked by a distinct element.
- The first one has goblin sculptures, further up is the emblem of Catalonia and a tile-shard mosaic-covered salamander on the third landing.
The Hypostyle Room
- The Dragon Stairway culminates into an enormous space called the Hypostyle room.
- The entire space is supported by 86 striped columns, with the outermost ones sloping in an undulating form contrary to the rules of classical composition.
- The ceiling of the Hypostyle room consists of small domes made up of traditional clay bricks that are covered with beautiful patterns of tile-shard mosaics.
Greek Theatre
- At the centre of the Monumental Zone of Park Güell lies the huge open air space originally called the Greek Theatre and now called Plaça de la Natura (Nature Square).
- Sitting over Hypostyle columns, projecting out of the mountain behind and lined with tile shard mosaic patterned benches, this vast platform was planned to stage large open-air shows.
Laundry Portico
- On the eastern side of the Greek Theater Square, you'll find an iron gate that leads to Casa Larrard's gardens.
- The walkway rises above the grounds and goes through a pine forest.
- There is a spiral ramp at the end of the route that allows you to go down to the house.
Austria Gardens
- When development for the residential plots stalled, the space demarcated for it was turned into a municipal plant nursery.
- With trees donated from Austria, this part of the park has a very distinguished look.
- The Austria gardens have a beautiful view and host two prominent houses, one of which was acquired by Gaudi’s family which has now been converted into Gaudí House museum.
