The area
Neighbourhood: Eixample
Passing through the glorious Plaça Catalunya, you enter the newer city district of Eixample, literally translated as “extension,” which immediately becomes recognisable by its more spacious streets and elegant atmosphere. The main artery of this sizable district, Passeig de Gracia, is lined with high-end international designer stores. Not to be outdone, the glitz and glamour of this zone is perhaps best exemplified by the comfortable and lavish five-star hotels that flank the divine and modernistic buildings from some of the world’s most recognised architects such as Gaudi and Montaner.

With the Rambla it is the most famous avenue in Barcelona also because here overlook Casa Batlò and La Pedrera, two of Gaudi's masterpieces. Not only do these houses overlook this avenue, but many others that represent the best of Catalan Modernism (our Liberty) with buildings by Lluís Domènech i Montaner, as well as other famous architects of the time such as Josep Puig i Cadafalch and Enric Sagnier. For example, right next to Casa Batlò is Casa Amatler, which can also be visited, the work of the aforementioned Cadafalch. On this avenue there are also shops of the most famous brands. It is therefore not strange that it is one of the places in Spain where the cost of housing is more expensive!

Passeig de Gràcia is the street where the rich and richer sought to out-spend each other in the late 1890s. House after house and building after building compete for the most outlandish (and often ugly) presentation. The owners were often wealthy entrepreneurs returning to Spain (with their dubious wealth) after the loss of Spain's colonies in Cuba, Puerto Rico, the Philippines and elsewhere.

We took the metro to Passeig de Gracia, it was very easy to navigate! We spent the day shopping and exploring the city. Some of the luxury store had lines to enter their stores, and some you just walked in. Overall we had a great time in the city.

This wide tree lined avenue is certainly worth taking the time to visit and if you are going to see either Gaudí's La Predrera or Casa Batlló then obviously you will.
This street is basically the start of the new part of Barcelona and was a showcase for Barcelona's bourgeoisie at the turn of the 19th century. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries Barcelona was expanding and the new boulevard connected the old village of Gràcia with the new city centre. There are some very impressive buildings on this boulevard but today it also has a reputation for housing Barcelona's most prestigious shops and you will find Gucci, Tommy Hilfinger, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Zara and many more up market brands along its length. Now I am sure there are those that will find that proposition exciting, but I am someone that would rather see something unique to the city I am visiting and not what you can find in every other major city in the world. So once I had taken a look at the most impressive buildings I couldn’t wait to make it down back to the Gothic Quarter and the El Born district.

The Paseo de Gracia is a beautiful avenue to visit if or if in Barcelona. It has many luxury hotels, shops of all kinds, large exclusive fashion brands coexist with others not so recognized, as well as multiple bars and tourist places. Must visit Casa Batlló, La pedrera or stop and eat some tapas in El Nacional. You can’t go by without admiring the facades of buildings with multiple types of charming balconies, as well as the columns of lighting with their benches have particular to take pictures of.

The room was beautiful with a small terrace overlooking the street below. The hotel is within walking distance of shopping, restaurants and transportation. The staff were very accommodating, knowledgeable and always smiling. There are some nice cafes to the right as you leave the front door and Attractions such as La Rambla, Gothic Quarters are an easy walk. It was real hot when we were there but cooler weather would make for a more enjoyable experience.

It's definitely the luxury street, given the big shops such as, Gucci, Prada, Burberry, Dolce and Gabbana, an undoubtedly very elegant street, the presence of several more beautiful modernist buildings makes this beautiful street even more beautiful.
In this street you can admire the beautiful residential buildings created by master Gaudi.
Absolutely to see!!!

This avenue houses many shops, some more expensive, and old buildings with ancient architecture, which seem to be landscaped on the walls.
There are important sights around there.
The avenue has trees that make it even more beautiful.

This street is a major upgrade from Las Ramblas. Plenty of high-end shops, lots of restaurants and major architectural finds. It has major transportation access by tourist and other buses, metro trains, and a train station that is much easier to use than Barcelona Sants.

It's long and wide and an absolute must for the visitor. Along this lovely avenue you will find some of the most famous Modernista buildings, plus some elegant shopping. A Metro line runs underneath. It leads up hill to Gracia, my favorite neighborhood for the cool vibe. Cafes along the way.

Hola viejer@s estoy organizando un viaje a Barcelona y quería saber si desde el aeropuerto es cómodo viajar en metro hasta el Paseo de Grazzia, alli me alojaré. Es que no sé si van muy llenos de gente , O si me aconsejan alguna otra opción económica. Gracias
Written July 7, 2019
Hola cómo te dijeron para mi la manera más cómoda es en el Aerobús es un colectivo color azul claro que te lleva hasta Plaza Cataluña. Ahí comienza Paseo de Gracia, así que depende la altura hasta puedas ir caminando. Precio EU 5,90 por persona solo ida.
Tren sale desde la terminal T2 si llegas a T1 tenes que tomar un colectivo gratuito que conecta ambas terminales. En el tren te bajarías en la estación Paseo de Gracia. Precio de tíquet es EU 4,20
En metro nunca fui del aeropuerto al centro. Mi recomendación es que lo más cómodo es el Aerobús.

Ποιος είναι ο πιο εύκολος τρόπος μεταφοράς από το αεροδρόμιο στην λεωφόρο Passeig de Gracia?
Written November 14, 2017
Από το αεροδρόμιο παίρνεις το Aerobus (κόστος εισιτηρίου γύρω στα 6€ η μια διαδρομή και γύρω στα 11€ με επιστροφή προς το αεροδρόμιο) και σταματάς στην στάση Pl. Universitat και από εκεί είναι περίπου 1 χλμ με τα πόδια.

Are the stores open on Hispanic Day (October 12, 2017)? I’m getting conflicting answers from the locals... any clarity would be great! Thanks!
Written October 11, 2017
Sorry, don't know for sure, but my experience of Spain and public holidays is that the larger shops in tourist cities stay open but the smaller ones close. But Hispanic Day in Barcelona right now who knows what they will do. Good luck!

Do I stay on the same platform when I get off the airport train and want to catch the Camallera train at Passeig de Gracia?
Written July 21, 2016
Sorry, I'm unable to help with this. We booked a company through Viator that picked us up at the airport and dropped us at our hotel. The fees were quite reasonable and the service was great. (Sorry -- I can't remember the name of the shuttle service!)

Hi Paul I will be coming to Barcelona some time in August and I'm looking for something different and unique, I live in Dubai so I need a different and authentic shopping experience with good deals. So what is your best recommended places.
Written July 14, 2016
I think Passeig de Gracia has a mix of international brand names and more local brand names. I actually like the latter much more. Like you, I prefer something authentic. I suggest you stay away from Las Ramblas/major shopping malls and head for the Gothic Quarter for quaint, artisan boutiques.
