    Hotel Continental – Stories of Las Ramblas

    If you’ve ever visited Barcelona, you’ve walked on La Rambla. Almost impossible to avoid, this tree-lined street extends from the famous Mirador de Colom with its grand Columbus statue at the waterfront up to the city centre, Plaça de Catalunya. Bordered by the Gothic Quarter and connecting the old city to the more modern Eixample, La Rambla is often known in the plural, Las Ramblas, as it is in fact a collection of smaller streets comprising one main corridor of shops, cafes and people.

    3 Things You Didn’t Know About The Spanish Civil War

    Go back in time, a little over eight decades, and Spain was beginning one of the most tumultuous periods of its history. And while visitors coming for the paella, tapas and flamenco might not know all the details, La Guerra, continues to have a long-lasting impact on the nation.
