This is maybe the longest street in BCN, cutting across L'Eixample. Normally it would be a great way to get across town, but part of if is torn up to build a tram. Still it is lined with very good apartment buildings, some with classic Modernista design.

Avinguda Diagonal is a major thoroughfare in Barcelona. As I walked along the entire length of the road from Plaça de Francesc Macià to Monumental, it felt like a showcase of Catalan Modernism given the numerous examples of building built in that style on the road. In fact, Sagrada Familia is just to the north Avinguda Diagonal, near the Monumental subway station.
There's also plenty of cafes and restaurants to stop for a rest while admiring all the buildings.

There is a special lane for the bikes and you can bike from beginning to end with no problems. It is a great place to visit when you're in BCN. I advise you to go by bike, by foot or just take a bus. There are great buildings around, historical building but also modern buildings.

I read that this was an exciting place to see things. It is basically a long straight road. It was ok to wonder down but nothing special.

This street dates to 1859 and is approx.11km in length maintaining a constant width of 50m. As per its name, it cuts the City in two, running from Les Corts to Sant Martíi.
It vies with some of the other major arteries of the city for the scale of its buildings, the architecture, schools, shopping centres, entertainment venues and historical sites.
One of the more unusual buildings accessed from this street is the Torre Glòries, a bullet shaped office tower constructed from concrete, steel and aluminium cladding. there are reputedly 4,500 windows in the 34 storey above ground section. The cladding has different colours. One of the main features is the extensive use of LED lighting used to generate different colours when illuminated at night and different occasions throughout the year. This building has a few other names not suitable for TA.

Avinguda Diagonal is the widest and one of the most important avenues in Barcelona!
A wide tree-lined 11km long boulevard with interesting building and stores.
A lot of benches around the area for you to sit, relax and enjoy the atmosphere!

Worth going out of your way for.
We found ourselves on Diagonal having walked from where the cruise bus dropped us. We were walking to Sagrada Família and decided to walk along Diagonal. I’m so glad we did.
It’s a wide tree line boulevard with some truly gorgeous buildings. It rivalled the best in Paris. The traffic was busy at times but it did not spoil a very lovely walk.
With the amazing Sagrada Família at the end of our walk it was really lovely . Sagrada is not on Diagonal, but close.

Here is the newest part of Barcelona, at the end of the street there is a huge mall and amusement park. For the difference from the rest of the city, here it seemed very calm.

A beautiful tree-lined street if one needs to walk or even drive along it; however, it is not worth walking or driving along for the sake of it, there are more interesting streets such as Passeig de Gracia and La Rambla.
