The Neighborhood:
The apartment is conveniently located right by Paseo de Gracia avenue and in the very middle of Eixample district. This elegant, majestic boulevard was a showcase for Barcelona's bourgeoisie at the turn of the 19th century, and links the Plaça Catalunya with the district of Gràcia, hence its name. The presence of Barcelona's finest modernista buildings makes this avenue a veritable open-air museum.

Barcelona's new artery, in the centre of the newly built Eixample district, was the place moneyed bourgeois families chose to live. On either side of the street, they constructed imposing buildings that continue to delight everyone who passes by. These jewels of Catalonia's home-grown art nouveau, modernisme, and the later movement, noucentisme, were created by architects of the calibre of Gaudí (La Pedrera and the Casa Batlló), Puig i Cadafalch (casa Amatller), and Domènech i Muntaner (Casa Lleó Morera), to name just three. On the pavement we can see the organic paving stones designed by Gaudí, and along the boulevard are the streetlamps by Pere Falqués, with their white-mosaic benches.

The architectural jewels stand side by side with some of Barcelona's most prestigious shops. Shopping enthusiasts will find their true happiness on the on this street, a true temple of fashion. In the ground floors of those amazing buildings you will find many luxury shops and leading fashion houses including Louis Vuitton, Loewe, Armani, Cartier, Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent and many others.

Plenty of café, tapas bars, rooftop bars and restaurants are within walking distance. Many restaurants will serve traditional Spanish specialties and International dishes for lunch and dinner. Staying in this neighborhood is the best decision you can make. A gem in the city center of Barcelona!
