Oct 22, 2008 This is Barcelona ’s largest pedestrian shopping strip, which not only has great for shopping but plenty of buskers and street entertainment to check out as well. It’s a great strip to wander and soak up the metropolitan feel to the city. You will find internet, banks, Tapas bars, markets and souvenirs along this street. Beware of pickpockets in crowded areas and while you are watch the street performers Jan 5, 2009 i think i was expecting too much of the place, but i was a bit dissapointed by the Ramblas. the atmosphere in the whole city is lovely and i simply adore how they enjoy life there, but that is one of the most popular spots of the city and a bit annoying for me from this point of view. they have all souvenirs and million things you can buy, from maps, guides and postcards to little gifts, they have all the mimes and actors there, singers and street artists, which gives its charm. what i really didnt like though, was all the small animals and little birds kept locked in cages. me and my friend wanted to open up the cages and set them free, one night, but they were guarded.. poor animals. Jan 25, 2010 This place is amazing! From the scorching, beautiful weather, to people who stand in it all day long acting as statues! (Rather them than me). I don't like it when kids with clubbed-foot are trying to walk around though! :S My 'favourite' act was a bloke dressed in a Barcelona football kit doing football skills- he was great! I visited Barcelona when I went on a Mediterranean Cruise! :D Aug 3, 2008 Such a great strip of Barcelona!! Has everything including stores such as Puma and what not going up, and going down leads to the port at the Maremagnum mall with an amazing design! There are tons of small little kind of trinket booths too and little stalls where you can get a caricature of yourself and what not. A Barcelona must! Related Links
