    Your best plan is to book a hotel in this area for your visit to Barcelona. The streets are lined with trees. The restaurants are very good. The shopping is wonderful. We can walk up and down, and there are benches scattered around to take a break. I love this street.

    This broad walkway was originally designed by Architect Josep Fontseré as a showcase for a collection of bronze statues of Catalan heroes and was originally known as the Parc de la Ciutadella's parlour. That was until Franco made a point of melting them all down (except one) to make the giant statue of the Virgin over the dome of the Basilica of La Mercè. After Franco's death, Barcelona avenged the memory of the desecration by renaming the Passeig after Lluís Companys, the President of the Generalitat executed by Franco in 1940.
    Today you can largely forget about the turbulent past and enjoy the Passeig de Lluís Companys for what it is, which is a great place for a stroll in Barcelona.

    It’s a great addition to the enjoyable waterfront. Showing a craft with billowing sails, it catches the attention when strolling by.

    By a Catalan artist it pays homage to the sport of sailing and water enjoyed by so many.

    I have traveled several times with Barcelife and it has always been a great experience, I have known them for several years now and they offer a wide variety of very interesting destinations, the last trip I took with them was to La Molina and I was in the snowshoeing activity, I loved! The guides were super friendly and the group that we went with was also very nice, sometimes you feel alone in a city like Barcelona and in Barcelife you feel part of a family and a group is always created. Many thanks for everything.
    I will repeat as always! ☺️
