BARCELONA'S LAS RAMBLAS



Like a river (which it actually was long ago) cutting a swathe through the city, the 1.5-kilometer long pedestrianized Las Ramblas is the place to be if you want to see and feel the pulse of Barcelona. We meandered from the northernmost end of Placa Catalunya to the southernmost portion at Port Vell where a tall statue of Christopher Columbus pointing at the sea stands. This photo was taken at the crown of his head which we climbed via a narrow, rickety elevator.

Location: Barcelona, Spain
