Rambla de Catalunya is one of the chicest streets in Barcelona, lined with lime trees and international stores like its namesake, the famed and also tree-lined avenue. However, this Rambla is much quieter and more easygoing than the larger street, and just as relaxing to stroll along in hot weather due to the shade from all the trees.
Running from Plaça de Catalunya to Avinguda Diagonal in the Eixample district of central Barcelona, Rambla de Catalunya offers nearly a mile of leisure activities, featuring all kinds of offerings in its naturally comfortable setting.
