Designed by Ildefonso Cerdá, this central Barcelona neighbourhood belongs to the modernist district par excellence, and its straight, wide and elegant streets are a good example of the city's movement. L'Eixample stretches from Gran Via to Diagonal. Here you will find the main promenades, such as Passeig de Gràcia, Rambla de Catalunya or Passeig de Sant Joan and some of the most emblematic buildings, such as the Sagrada Família. At the same time, the Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample, where Carrer Villarroel is located, is a quiet residential district, with gardens hidden in the courtyards, schools, squares and bars, where daily life is calm and pleasant.
