Mixed Metaphors

On the 1783 foot summit of Mount Tibidabo, overlooking Barcelona, best reached by taking a funicular, is the Temple de Sagrat Cor, a modern church designed by Enric Sagnier in the early 20th Century. It is a curious mixture of Modernist and neo-Gothic styles and was designed to rival Sacre Coeur atop Paris's Montmartre district. The amusement park at its foot is an interesting counterpoint.
