BARCELONA TOURIST INFORMATION
The apartment is just 50 metres from the Ramblas, a two minute walk to the Mercado Sant José and the Opera House, sited opposite the historic Biblioteca de Catalunya, La Massana school of arts and crafts, and the site of the first teaching hospital in Europe. In the central patio of this medieval complex, in the midst of the ancient orangerie flanked by spectacular medieval staircases, you can write a few postcards, enjoy a meal, snack, coffee or drink, or perhaps just sit around in the sunshine taking in the beauty, the atmosphere, and the amusing congregation of people, all on different missions.
A brief walk in the direction away from Las Ramblas takes you to the newly redeveloped Rambla del Raval, the area outside the walls of the Roman city, a fascinating mix of old and new. Opposite the new, emblematic Hotel del Ravel is one of Barcelona's most traditional restaurants: Casa Leopoldo, a monument to Barcelona's literary and culinary traditions and media culture. Beside it, El Cafetí, a favorite of ex-London mayor Ken Livingstone, offers at considerably lower prices delicious traditional dishes with many imaginative touches.
Also on the Rambla de Raval you will find old-style fish and chips, Turkish delights and other specialties, tea rooms, Indian and Pakistani restaurants, modern Mediterranean cuisine and tapas. Needless to say, the night life in this area is varied and lively. But please note that, despite the many sidewalk cafes and terrasas, you needn't spend a cent when in the mood for people watching. Just sit on one of the many benches and enjoy the ebb and flow of the river of life that is the Rambla del Raval.
Also recommended is a visit to the nearby Museum of Modern Art of Barcelona (MACBA), designed by Richard Meir, and you will probably enjoy the Maritime Museum, the port and beaches. Just across the Ramblas from Casa Babel, you will find Barcelona's famous Gothic Quarter, with its medieval and renaissance palaces, colourful shops art galleries, cafes and restaurants. But it may be wise to leave a bit of time to just randomly browse through some of the many attractions of cool, vibrant, stylish Barcelona.
