Eixample Esquerre in 6 minutes- Barcelona District to District

Discover Barcelona's Eixample neighbourhood in 6 minutes.

Native and foreign locals to the neighbourhood give their advice for the motivation you need to come visit, learn about it, and stay here yourself.

Eixample is in the centre of Barcelona. Here there is everything: Markets, shops, pharmacies, bars, restaurants, and clubs... All within a short walk.

The neighbours tell us how well-connected the area is with the rest of the city, with Metro stations, buses, and taxis all passing through. They also tell us that the neighbourhood is calm and not saturated with tourists from the Old City centre. You can still experience the authentic Barcelona lifestyle here with a strong sense of community .

Through custom-made maps, we explain the history of the Eixample district. This area is more than just a neighbourhood, it is the economic center of Barcelona. A visionary town planner named Ildefonso Cerda devised a structure in which organised blocks of buildings would face the sun and facilitate future traffic.
