I can think of very few more iconic things to do in Barcelona than take a stroll down Las Ramblas and I can't imagine a trip without doing it. Start at the top at Plaza Catalunya (for Gods sake don't start at the bottom) and you can experience the various different sections of Las Ramblas, I would recommend stopping off... More

Great tree lined walk from port to Plaza Catalunya lots to see, great market stalls with the usual tat for sale. Every seems a small bit paranoid bags held like babies. Lots of cops also here which adds to the tension. I did see lots of beady eyed people watching for an easy touch. Well worth seeing this street I... More

Depending on the day, there can be more things to see on this street such as human pyramids. It's also a good place to buy souvenirs!

This is the Spanish equivelent of Pigalle in Paris, Much like Pigalle you have to keep your eye on your belongings and fend off millions of street peddlers. Austhetically las ramblas is more pleasing and feels slightly safer than Pigalle. However i wont be rushing back. On a plus there is an indoor market which offers good opportunities to take... More

I liked the street where it had many shops, souvineers, restaurants, hotels, food market. It's a very busy street where many tourists will go to. When you visit La Ramblas you have to watch out from the theifs! They can steal the tourists mobiles or wallet without even noticing. Very nice street but expensive and very crowded
