Description of the district
RAVAL DISTRICT. The rough and bawdy Raval is one of Barcelona’s least-known areas, off the tourist track, a cauldron filled with some of the city’s most varied and colourful sites and sociology. Traversed by all manner of spectacle, this area is in constant urban and cultural transformation and its peculiar mixture causes the interest and the admiration of all. The Raval lies to the letf of La Rambla, the most famous street in Barcelona that traverses the old town towards the sea. Lively throughout the day and night -both during summertime and wintertime- the Rambla features lots of unique street performers ranging from surreal human statues and card tricksters to talented artists and musicians. In the up-and-coming Raval district you will find an ever-expanding range of trendy bars and restaurants and some of the most ancient and famous buildings of Barcelona such as the modern art museum (MACBA), the National Library of Catalonia and the Palau Güell, declared by UNESCO in 1984 a world-heritage building.
