    Stop by the la boqueria market👌🏼 la rambla is full of hidden treasures, so walk slowly and take everything in. Keep an eye on your belongings, though – pickpockets operate here!

    Beware of pocket pickers! Keep your wallet and phone in your front pockets and your backpack on front. Your purse around your neck. And enjoy the your walk.

    Popular tourist street but watch out for pickpockets. You can find flowers, birds, jewellery and cheap souvenirs here at the stalls. Some really nice, like the small magnets with real mini plants on.

    Beautiful street for walking, but overrun with tourists and shoppers. Be wary of pick pocketers and solicitors. Good place to gift shop for trinkets to bring back to family and friends at home.

    Great stroll from Plaça Catalunya down to the ocean. A must stop on the way is La Boqueria. Just be mindful of pick pocketers, but other than that, it's a beautiful way to spend a few hours.

    Be sure to head to the Canaletes Fountain, located at the top of Las Ramblas! Legend holds that those who drink from it will ALWAYS return to Barcelona!

    Try the market for delicious food- much cheaper than the restaurants at les rambles. if really on a budget, pick up your own tapas ingredients at the carrefour supermarket at the top of the street.

    Lots of great food and shopping here. Keep an eye out for the unofficial vendors who sell stuff from their blanket. They are constantly on the move and are willing to make deals on their merchandise.

    Long side walk full of tourists and pickpockets. Worth to visit only because of the market La Boqueria. Fresh fruits stalls and good tapas bars are inside the market.

    Walk along this busy street and experience the Barcelona’s dashing culture. Made lively by the artists, performers, dancers, and cafés, this is a great place to hang out in the afternoon.

    A tourist thoroughfare in the day, a hooker and drug dealer thoroughfare at night! Frankly, not special, but is a good place to start when you begin exploring Barcelona.

    It's the 23rd of April, so it's Sant Jordi Day! That's why Las Ramblas today are full of girls buying books for their boyfriends and the guys buying roses for their ladies!

    Don't take a taxi to Las Ramblas - exit at Monument to Columbus and walk... nicer and not so crowded areas in the North of Las Ramblas (de Catalunya) and Passeig de Gracia... also nice stores!
  • Classic Sailing Barcelona
    Despite the crowds, still a must-do for visitors. But if you stop for a beer, make sure you ask the price first - some places will sting you 15 Euros for a beer!

    The street starts from Placa de Catalunya and ends at Monument a Colom. It is nearly 1.2 km long at the heart of the city.

    Kinda the place to be. Basically the main pedestrian thoroughfare in Barcelona and right in the middle of the old city center.

    Pedestrian street, geared somewhat to tourists and natives too, there are lots of souvenir shops along it, a flower market, the street performers and the amazing food market la Boqueria, where to eat

    Nice, all brands and foods are here. Heart of Barcelona. If you are looking for souvenir, go for Cemusa but quite expensive.
