Passeig de Gracia:

Paseo de Gracia, Barcelona

After you come to Avinguda Diagonal, turn right and the first big avenue turning to the right again is Passeig de Gracia (parallel to Rambla Catalunya), the most glamorous street in Barcelona and one of the best places to appreciate the city's modernisme architecture. One of its most emblematic features, in addition to the buildings flanking the avenue, is the classic lamppost-benches that were installed in 1906. Designed by the architect Pere Falquès, they combine utility and decoration. Walking down this avenue, you'll find the following two visits.
