La Rambla is
Barcelona's famous tree lined boulevard. This beautiful
walkway stretches from the plaza de Catalunya at the top, down to
the statue of Columbus on the seafront.

It is lined from
top to bottom with tapas bars restaurants and shops. The old
food market is also situated on La Rambla. Street artists
perform magic tricks, jugglers entertain the crowds. People dressed
in a variety of costumes pose as statues, only moving when they hear
the clink of a coin being thrown into a hat.

wait long enough, you will see everybody you've ever known .
