About Eixample

Broad, grid-planned avenues with elegant 19th-century apartment blocks, Modernista facades, and a polished urban feel. It mixes residential streets, cafés, shops, and landmark architecture, with a steadier pace away from the main boulevards.

Watch out for

  • Can feel busy and traffic-heavy on major boulevards, especially around tourist corridors.
