The Spanish poet Federico García Lorca is attributed with saying about La Rambla, "It is the only street in the world which I wish would never end". La Rambla starts at Plaza Catalunya and ends at the Monument of Columbus at the Port Vell harbour. La Rambla is a spectacular sight, fun to walk down and the best way to sense what Barcelona have to offer you.

If you have not strolled down it, you cannot say you have been in Barcelona.

Whether you’re looking for the latest in fashion and design, traditional ceramics to the avant guarde, from current best-sellers to used books, from tiny traditional shops and open-aired markets to modern day malls, Barcelona has it all.
