The Midway Viaduct

Made up of three rows of thick columns and a vault that emulates cave stalactites,the midway viaduct is one of the most original and experimental structures that can be seen in Park Güell.
Located on the second bend of the route that goes up to the upper part of the urbanizastion, is made of three rows of columns, the central ones and vertical and the lateral ones tilts towards the centre like butresses.The vaults on the other hand are supported thanks to a series of prefabricated arches and are arranged in a parallel way which seemingly holds up a mash of rough, large edges, like a natural grotto.

La composition met en valeur les courbes, c'est excellent.

Fabulous shot, José. Great details and textures and information. ~

The architecture has a primitive look - there appears to be rocks suspended in the ceiling - the structural engineering boggles the mind ! You certainly captured this very well V

Exquisite structures, Jose! Love the textures, light and composition, interesting information, too! V

I like both versions of these columns. The graphic design of the shadowed on appeals, but I also like the ceiling detail in this one. V
