Las Ramblas is one of Barcelona's most famous landmarks and is extremely popular with tourists due to its vibrant community atmosphere.
Las Ramblas boulevard is about 1.2 kilometres long and is flanked by Placa Catalunya and Port Vell near the cruise port terminal in the north and south, respectively. The area is also very close to the Gothic Quarter (called Barri Gotic), which is also a must see for its beautiful medieval architecture. The city centre is best accessed on foot, while reaching the city center from the city's outer limits can be done with a vehicle since those roads are much wider and less crowded with pedestrians.
Las Ramblas is easily accessed by three metro stops along the length of the boulevard. This makes it an excellent transit spot to get to the rest of the city. For example, from Catalunya, you could catch an Aerobus to the airport or the Bus Turistic to reach myriad tourist attractions.
