The best streets:
Diagonal
Diagonal is one of Barcelona’s main streets. If you are staying in the city, you will probably be near it. Why is that? Because Diagonal is an avenue that crosses Barcelona from side to side.
There you will find many shops, from the upper part of the city (the exclusive shops) to the lowest, where more affordable things could be bought.
Passeig de Gràcia
But if there is a street that represents the shopping heart of Barcelona, it’s Passeig de Gràcia. Located between the Ramblas and Diagonal, everything that you look for in your shopping spree will be there. Mostly clothes for everyone and every customer.
Portal de l’Àngel
On of Spain’s most well known streets is the Portal de l’Àngel. Located side by side from the Ramblas, it’s not the largest street, but it is full of different shops, from the Disney Store to the Corte Ingles (the biggest mall in the country).
The best Barcelona’s malls:
Las Arenas
This mall is a monument itself. This is the newest addition to the city, but it’s build inside the structure of a Plaza de Toros, in Plaça Espanya. There are a lot of things to do in this mall: shops, movies, even a museum! And do not miss the chance to see the views from the rooftop, accessible from an elevator or escalators.
Diagonal Mar
