About this place

La Rambla is a tree-lined pedestrian boulevard running through the centre of Barcelona, extending from the port northward to Plaça de Catalunya.

The street passes through the Ciutat Vella district and is one of the most recognisable thoroughfares in the city, with trees running along its central walkway for much of its length.

As a public boulevard, it can be walked from end to end, giving a clear sense of how the older parts of central Barcelona connect the waterfront to the city's main square.
