La Rambla

Often the first landmark that people identify with the city. It is the central and most famous boulevard cutting through the heart of the city centre — a vibrant promenade filled with Barcelona life at its best. It stretches from the harbour to La Plaça Catalunya, running through the Ciutat Vella like a spine. Come here to see street performers, enjoy the flower and pet stalls, or just sit back and watch all of Barcelona walk by. During the day La Rambla is packed with tourists; at night the atmosphere shifts and the locals come out, along with newspaper and book stands, musicians, and street artists that all contribute to a lively and unique atmosphere. Be aware that the area attracts pickpockets, particularly after dark. If you happen to be here after Barça win, you are in for a treat. A few blocks south of its north end you will find La Boqueria, a very large covered market.
