This is simply a street, best walked from Placa Catalunya down to the harbour. It’s a street like no other though with traders selling everything along the way from souvenirs to live chickens! This is an extract from our free Barcelona City Guide.
Artists at work on La Rambla
La Rambla is around 1.5km long and you need to allow plenty of time to walk it, especially if you plan to stop along the way. Some of the attractions along this street include the street artists, the restaurants, the street entertainers and the stalls. La Rambla is always buzzing with activity, but we really enjoy soaking up the atmosphere when we visit. Nearest metro stops are Dressanes for lower La Rambla, and Catalunya for the top bit of the street.
