Walk La Rambla
La Rambla is a famous street stretching from Town Center to the harbor. As you walk, you’ll pass flower vendors, scarf vendors, bird vendors… a lot of vendors. There are interesting (and funny) shops everywhere.
About halfway down the street, there is an enormous covered market stuffed with cheeses, salamis, and other local products. It’s worth the crowd to weave in and out of all the sounds and smells! But do keep an eye on your purse.
The Rambla will take you all the way down to Port Vell, where you can say hello to Christopher Columbus (or his statue, anyway). If your feet aren’t sore yet, continue your stroll down Rambla de Mar for some lovely harbor views.
