A street of dreams, a street of action, a street of
reputation. All of these descriptions fit La
Ramblas, Les Ramblas, or Las Ramblas, all three
names apply to the area that runs from the
Christopher Columbus monument, near the sea, north
to Playca Catalunya.
Restaurants that are ready for the tourists with
food and prices to match, the grand market,
closeness to the sea, the many shops that draw the
tourist inside, and the mime artists, bird sellers
and flower stalls that line the sidewalks make for
a vibrant center of the city.
