Barcelona Attractions - Las Ramblas!
Barcelona is a very versatile and open minded city. There are many ways you to get to know the characteristics of Barcelona, because there is much to do in the exclusive metropolis of Catalonia. A City-stroll through the different quarters of Barcelona starting with the "Ramblas", the gothic quarters, lively plazas and the sea side. Visit some of the many cathedrals and other monumental buildings in Barcelona and witness the art of Antoni Gaudí in the Parc Güell and the Sagrada Familia. Experience Barcelona at night, browse markets or visit museums and art centres.
Las Ramblas
If you start off with a walk through the city centre, the first
thing most tourists do is to visit the “Ramblas”, it’s a very lively
place. The Ramblas will give a good first impression of what Barcelona
is like. You will find street artists from all over the world, little
shops and road cafes. The “Ramblas” is divided into seven subsections
and in each section you will find different characteristics reflecting
the architecture and lifestyle of the city. The upper section is
called Rambla Canaletes, where the Canaletes-Fountain and a hub
of bus connections is located. As with many fountains, this too
has a superstition - that one who drinks from its water will return
again and again to Barcelona.
In reality of course nobody needs to drink from this water in order
to have the desire to return to Barcelona. I think the citiy's ambience
and attractions has the same effect. It is not a difficult task
to recognize Barcelona’s charm. If you stroll along the tiny side
lanes of “Ramblas”, you will discover some of the most beautiful
plazas I have ever seen and some of the real Barcelona nightlife.
