Love this part of Palma. Lovely plants and trees and areas to rest and enjoy the buildings and people watch. Places to buy flowers or plants or just enjoy. Places to stop for a drink or a meal. We tend to take the bus to Praca de Espana and wander different ways through the town and end up at this... More

The only thing it has in common with Barcelona's Las Ramblas is the central location and trees.. Its a nicer street as itsmore relaxed and the coffee shops aren't over-priced. Just a few hundred metres up from the Cathdral even on a day trip you can fit it in. More
