The people think that it is bad. It is not the true. All the culture is sharing the ravals and it is very fun to see the multiculturalism. I can make a visit with you

Closest decent supermarket where you can do you general groceries. Locate just 10min away by walk.

The area is vibrant, historic, authentic and full of personality. It is a lively, multi-cultural neighbourhood with a huge variety of tempting cafes, restaurants and bars. The area has also become fashionable being host to a wide variety of art studios, galleries and trendy bookshops, not to mention the imposing MACBA (museum of modern art) and CCCB which is the neighbouring exhibition centre. Clothes shopping is also a pleasure in El Raval thanks to the little one-off boutiques that line some of the streets giving you a varied and interesting shopping experience. Unlike the Eixample with its large branded name designer labels, Raval is where you find the small privately-owned shops selling clothes you can't find anywhere else. El Raval is alive all through the day and night so you will never be without an eatery to entice you in the early hours of the morning. El Raval offers a central location within walking distance of many of the other popular areas such as the Gothic Quarter and Eixample. The nearest metro stops are on Las Ramblas, Barcelona's most famous street which runs up one side of El Raval. Staying in El Raval also means that you are situated between two of Barcelona's famous food markets, La Boqueria on Las Ramblas and Mercat Sant Antoni. Both places are worth a visit to stock up on fresh fruit to get you through the day or to sample Spain's delicious chorizo or Jamon Serrano. In terms of location El Raval gives you good access to many of the city's main attractions which are within walking distance.
