Apartment: Sant Climent Sant Antoni Apartment

In any event, the different urban renewal projects undertaken by the City for the 1992 Olympics and the improvement in social services have changed the face of the neighborhood. As we walk through the Raval, which grew up during the industrial revolution of the mid 19th century, we get the sensation that we have entered a modern version of the Tower of Babel. People of the most diverse origin inhabit the quarter and
lend it a unique color.

This multiculturalism impregnates every sphere of the social reality of the neighborhood. The traditional Boquería market now boasts the most exotic products from around the world. Stands featuring yucca, papaya, zapote, rocoto, ají amarillo and choclo have sprouted up next to those selling products from local Catalan farms and market gardens. A district almost entirely metamorphosed. Old den for artists, intellectuals and prostitutes, there remains an air of bohemian but modernism has installed. Nowadays the district shelters a very large contemporary Museum and Art Galleries.
Due to the lively nightlife and the districts history of inner city life this area can be inconvenient for visitors with small children

To see: Las Ramblas street, La Boquería Market, The Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art (MACBA),
Plaza Cataluña, the Monastery of Sant Pau del Camp.
