The Eixample (Catalan for "extension") is a district of Barcelona between the old city (Ciutat Vella) and what were once surrounding small towns (Sants, Gràcia, Sant Andreu etc.). Constructed in the 19th and early 20th centuries, some parts of the Eixample were heavily influenced by modernist architects, chief among whom is Antoni Gaudí.
Last Year Barcelona attended 4 MILLION tourist. The city awaits to have a 15% increase by year's ending which means an extra half million!
The zone includes the most important shoopingstreets and avenues of the city such as Passeig de Gràcia (that links centric Plaça Catalunya with the old town of Gràcia), Avinguda Diagonal (that cuts the grid diagonally), and Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes (that crosses all Barcelona from southwest to northeast). Other wide avenues in the area include Carrer d'Aragó, Carrer de Balmes and Passeig de Sant Joan.
If RODEODRIVE (Sold for 3000$ last month) is probably the most famous shoppingstreet for tourists visiting United States, Eixample is undoubtedly becoming the reference shoppingarea for whole Europe.
