Sometimes we feel what if those designers and architects are still alive. Of course, they are. They show that they are alive by their mind-blowing architects and designs, which they have built, which cannot be even copyrighted by modern architects? So, I would recommend all the tourists to visit the museum's city of Barcelona, Spain.
