Blowing Your Mind in Dali’s Catalonia, Figueres and Cadaques, Spain
Visiting Salvador Dalí’s museum in Figueres is like walking right into the darkest reaches of the genius' subconscious. Let's be frank: it's weird in there. More of a funhouse than a stuffy museum, Dalí's vision was to create a home for his art that is, itself, "a great Surrealist object." Just a 20-mile, nail-bitingly dramatic drive away is Dalí’s summer home in the picture-perfect seaside village of Cadaques. As you descend into town, you’ll instantly recognize the wild coast and deep blue sea depicted in so many of his paintings. This is where Dalí loved to work and his home is like his art: jumbled, colorful, absurd… like a half-remembered surreal dream.
