Antoni Gaudí was a Catalan architect was born in Catalonia on the Mediterranean Coast of
Spain on June 25th, 1852. Barcelona ‘s most famous architect, the city is full of his work,
including the many houses he built for rich industrialists, like the famous “La Pedrera (Casa
Milá) building and Palacio Guell.

From 1908 until 1926 Gaudí worked only on the Sagrada Familia. he got up at seven o’clock
in the morning every day and walked to mass in Gracia. He ate lunch in his workshop and
worked until six or seven in the evening. He often didn’t eat for long periods of time. His furniture
was an old bed and an uncomfortable sofa and he had an old coat for a blanket.

On the evening the 7th June, 1926 a tram hit him as he tried to cross a road. He was dirty and
wearing old clothes. No one recognized him.
Taxi drivers refused to take him to hospital. Eventually, someone took him to public hospital.
When they discovered who he was, they moved him to a private room. He died three days later.
His church is still unfinished but modern architects are continuing the work today.

Antoni Gaudí fue un arquitecto catalán que nació en Cataluña, en la costa mediterránea de

 Desde 1908 hasta 1926 Gaudí trabajó únicamente en la Sagrada Familia. se levantaba todos
los días a las siete de la mañana y caminaba a misa en Gracia. Almorzaba en su taller y
trabajaba hasta las seis o siete de la tarde. A menudo no comía durante largos períodos de
tiempo. Sus muebles eran una cama vieja y un sofá incómodo y tenía un abrigo viejo como
manta.

La tarde del 7 de junio de 1926, un tranvía lo atropelló cuando intentaba cruzar una calle. Estaba
sucio y vestía ropa vieja. Nadie lo reconoció.
Los taxistas se negaron a llevarlo al hospital. Al final alguien lo llevó al hospital público. Cuando
descubrieron quién era, lo trasladaron a una habitación privada. Murió tres días después. Su
iglesia aún está sin terminar, pero los arquitectos modernos continúan el trabajo hoy.

1. Read about Diego Huallpa

According to the legend tells that the Peruvian Indian, Diego Huallpa, discovered the silver of the
Rich Mountain, so that he was the original discoverer of the Potosi silver. One day he was herding
his llamas, when he realized two of them missing. He set off to look for them. By night fall the cold
took over and Diego had to stop to make a fire. He made his fire at the foot of the Mountain P’utuqsi.

The tale says that the fire grew so strong that the earth beneath it started to melt, and shiny liquid
started oozing from the ground. Then Diego realized that he had discovered something the Spanish
conquerors had a great appetite for. The Spanish eventually found out about the silver, which later
lead to Potosí becoming an important mining center.

Spanish
Según la leyenda cuenta que el indio peruano, Diego Huallpa, descubrió la plata del Monte
Rico, por lo que fue el descubridor original de la plata potosina. Un día estaba pastoreando sus
llamas, cuando se dio cuenta de que dos de ellas habían desaparecido. Partió a buscarlos. Al
caer la noche el frío se apoderó de él y Diego tuvo que parar a hacer fuego. Hizo su fuego al
pie de la montaña P'utuqsi.

La historia dice que el fuego se volvió tan fuerte que la tierra debajo de él comenzó a derretirse
y un líquido brillante comenzó a manar del suelo. Entonces Diego se dio cuenta de que había
 descubierto algo por lo que los conquistadores españoles tenían un gran apetito. Los españoles
finalmente descubrieron la plata, lo que luego llevó a Potosí a convertirse en un importante
centro minero.

Francisco, between others. And you should try to visit Santa Teresa Hotel.
Tourist: that sounds like a busy day¡ what about places to eat?
Tourist informer: Well, Potosi city is full the restaurants, you could take a taxi to the. Street on the
corner, it’s Doña Eugenia restaurant where serves traditional foods such as: k’alapurqa,
 chicharron, and so on, or you could eat at the 10th November market. That is into the
market, upstairs with stalls selling lots of different types of food.
Tourist: Mmm. You ‘re making me hungry¡
Tourist informer: OK. Let me mark those places on this map. I suggest you travel by taxi. They’re
quite cheap, and of course they‘re only five Bolivians per person.
Tourist: thank you very much
Tourist informer: you’re welcome, have a good stay.

Turista: ¡Oh, hace tanto calor! ¡Uf!…¿Podrías darme alguna información sobre

la ciudad, por favor? Tenemos una escala de un día para hacer turismo.

Informador turístico: Por supuesto, señora. Este folleto le dará muchas ideas sobre qué ver.
Incluye direcciones a todas las atracciones principales.

Turista: Hmm. ¿Qué recomendarías?

Informador turístico: si sólo estás aquí por un día, deberías visitar la "Montaña Rica", es decir

la parte alta de la ciudad. Luego por la tarde podrá visitar los magníficos edificios religiosos y cívicos
que brillan, como The Mint House, considerado el vertedero de escoria de Estados Unidos, La
Catedral de San Francisco, entre otros. Y deberías intentar visitar el Hotel Santa Teresa.

Turista: Suena como un día ajetreado. ¿Y qué hay de los lugares para comer?

Informador turístico: Bueno, la ciudad de Potosí está llena de restaurantes, puedes tomar un taxi
hasta allí. En la esquina está el restaurante Doña Eugenia donde sirven comidas tradicionales
como: k’alapurqa, chicharrón, etc., o puedes comer en el mercado 10 de noviembre. Eso es hacia el
mercado, arriba con puestos que venden muchos tipos diferentes de comida.

Turista: Mmm. ¡Me estás dando hambre!

Informador turístico: OK. Déjame marcar esos lugares en este mapa. Te sugiero viajar en taxi. Son
bastante baratos y claro, sólo cuestan cinco bolivianos por persona.

Turista: muchas gracias

Informador turístico: de nada, que tengas una buena estancia.
