Shopping in Barcelona
In Barcelona you can find all kinds of stores: modern and surprising, international chains, youth and low cost, young designers, located in large shopping centers or recondite streets of neighborhoods as characteristic as the neighborhood of Grace.
Depending on the stores that you want to find, we recommend that you go to one or another area of the city:
Diagonal Avenue is undoubtedly one of the main avenues for shopping lovers. From the English Court of María Cristina to the Paseo de Gracia you can walk without stopping entering one store after another. It stands out in L'Illa Shopping Center, where in addition to well-known brands, you can enjoy a restaurant or market area.
The most exclusive trade you will see in the modernist part of the city, that is, the one that follows the axis Eixample-Modernisme-Gaudí. You will check the most emblematic and characteristic offer of the city in the Bulevard Rosa located in the Passeig de Gracia. This tour also brings together the most commercial brands, the most prestigious international brands such as Prada, Chanel, Bulgary .. within reach of not all pockets.
If you're looking for footwear, there's nothing better than going down Pelayo Street, where several shoe stores are concentrated. And since you're in the area, stroll through the Santa Ana square to Portal del Angel and Puerta Ferrisa, another of Barcelona's main shopping areas.
If you are one of those who flee from the most commercial brands and you like the most authentic and oppressed outfits, we advise you to lose yourself in the streets of the most picturesque Barcelona. Stroll through Barri Gòtic, El Born and the Gracia neighborhood, where you will find shops that are real jewels if you are a fashion lover of local designers.
You also have large shopping centers such as L'Illa, of which we have already spoken, in the upper area of Diagonal, Les Glories, located in the square of the same name, Diagonal Mar, las Arenas, located in the old bullring located in Plaza España or La Maquinista.
You like the fashion that you like, in Barcelona all looks have a place. Not in vain in one of the pioneering cities in design, with prestigious fashion design schools and a specific museum: the Museum of Design.
