The area
The Arc de Triomf, where the apartment is close to, is the door to get in a very well served and charming area called Borne and the streets around, full of shops and supermarkets, bakeries, bars, coffee bar and restaurants. There, a lot of buses and the metro trains go back and forth and you can easily arrive everywhere in Barcelona and 100 meters away you can also find the Barcelona North Station from where you can take a bus to go everywhere in Spain and arrive from and to Girona’s Airport.
From the apartment, within a few minutes’ walk, you can arrive to the best beaches of Barcelona and the Park de la Ciutadella, to the Gaudi’s Sagrada Familia (10 minutes walking distance) and to the Picasso Museum that is in the heart of Borne (5 minutes walking distance). From there you can also easily arrive to the Barceloneta area and Plaza de Catalunia (10 minutes walking distance) and Las Ramblas that is located right there.
As London has its Portobello, Notting Hill and Camden Town markets, even Barcelona has its Mercados in different places. Among them there is the Mercado de los Encantes that is a jewel full of second hand products and very low cost vintage furniture, not very well known as touristic attraction but very popular among the people from Barcelona. Also the Gran Via is only a few hundred meters away from the apartment: there you can get on a bus that takes you to the Gaudi’s Parque Guell and the Gaudi’s Houses located in the Passeig de Gracia.
A safe and very quiet area very close to the artistic wonders of Barcelona.
