Barcelona - Ramblas Seafront: mp3cityguides Walking Tour (Unabridged)

Historical and cultural walking tours of Europe's finest cities.

As we stroll down this celebrated street, we'll tell you its history - from the story behind its name (and why it used to smell so much!) to the role it played during the Spanish Civil War. We'll show you how to ensure that you'll come back to Barcelona and take you through the most beautiful food market in the world.

We'll point out the mosaic by one of Barcelona's most famous artists (which most visitors will simply walk over) and tell you why the Placa Real was built. We'll explain what's wrong with the great statue of Columbus at the end of the Ramblas and give you the history of this remarkable city - including why you must never call an inhabitant of Barcelona "Spanish" - as you walk along by the harbour.
