    Trung does a deep dive on La Sagrada Familia, the longest-running construction project in the world, spanning over 140 years. Started in 1883 by Antoni Gaudí, the basilica embodies his vision of creating "the Bible in stone" through revolutionary architectural techniques inspired by natural forms. Despite numerous historical challenges and Gaudí's death in 1926, the project continues today, funded by tourism and executed using modern technology that validates Gaudí's original designs.Timestamps:(00:00) - Intro(03:00) - The importance of La Sagrada Família(08:08) - La Sagrada Familia Overview(17:42) - Gaudí's Early Life(29:26) - The Start of La Sagrada Familia(32:05) - Gaudi Takes Over the Project(36:32) - Gaudi's Unique Approach and Influences(38:49) - Gaudi's bringing his vision for La Sagrada Familia to life(46:15) - Political Upheaval and Its Impact(47:52) - Gaudi's Dedication and Lifestyle(49:58) - Struggle of La Sagrada Familia after Gaudi's death(51:53) - Revival of La Sagrada Familia(54:40) - Modern construction and Legacy(59:07) - Award SectionWhat Is Not Investment Advice?Every week, Jack Butcher, Bilal Zaidi & Trung Phan discuss what they're finding on the edges of the internet + the latest in business, technology and memes.Subscribe + listen on your fav podcast app:Apple: https://pod.link/notadvicepod.appleSpotify: https://pod.link/notadvicepod.spotifyOthers: https://pod.link/notadvicepodListen into our group chat on Telegram:https://t.me/notinvestmentadviceLet us know what you think on Twitter:http://twitter.com/bzaidihttp://twitter.com/trungtphanhttp://twitter.com/jackbutcherhttp://twitter.com/niapodcast
