It's impossible to miss La Sagrada Familia while in Barcelona.  Not only does it dominate its nearby landscape (having its own metro stop), it's also the last and maybe most famous work of Gaudí.  The sheer immensity of it is rather awe-inspiring, like a stone forest canopy...

At night families, joggers, and dogs abound in a nearby park and the reflection of La Sagrada Familia resembles a Monet painting on the lake, composed of softened shapes of light.

Eleven years ago Terence first started noticing Desiree because she played Final Fantasy VII, though it was through a series of comical miscommunications that eventually led to Desiree asking him out.  So it was only fitting to incorporate their mutual love of videogames into their engagement.  We had a great time exploring as they fearlessly let me drag them from one locale to another (even crawling through a small hole in a fence), making wonderful use of this location first for me (thanks Kelly and Jesse for the suggestions).
