Go for a walk down La Rambla de Canaletes walkway in Barcelona. Not at all like a US avenue, the road and walkway are switched so people stroll in the center pathway with vehicle path and parking on each side. Known as the most well known road in Barcelona, the one and a half mile strip reaches out from Placa Catalunya in the core of Barcelona to the harbor. An interesting walk anticipates you as you pass Mercat (market) de la Boqueria, a shopping center and booths where you can buy keepsakes, blossoms and daily papers from around the globe. Pay special mind to live human statues (tips are standard). Ensure you see the Font de Canaletes (Fountain of Chutes) at the highest point of the street.

Loved this street. A lot of artists and painters. Plus the living statues. Make sure you got pennies in your pocket. To see the statues, how they will come to life.
La Rambla de Canaletes is the very beginning of Las Ramblas. It starts up near the Plaza Catalunya and is filled with street performers, stalls selling everything from souvenirs to pigeons, and all sorts of sights to see.
Great tourist street in Barcelona. Hotels, hostels, and shops are all located here. You will also see street carts with souvenirs here, this is the spot to go in Barcelona!
This is the heart of the activity in the city I enjoyed the whole experience.TAPAS and all
