Friendly, Village-Like Industrial Quarter
| Address: |
|
Parque de la Espana Industrial Barcelona, Barcelona 08014 |
This quarter was once a separate village from Barcelona in centuries past. If you walk along the center of Sants, you will notice the narrow streets and the small houses. At one time, it was an industrial quarter with textile factories that no longer exist. What still remains, however, is the Park of España Industrial. Also in this quarter is Sants Station, which is in front of the Plaça dels Països Catalans. Close to the Plaça de Sants there is Les Cotxeres, an old tramway deposit converted into an exhibition center or dance hall, depending on the occasion. In any case, it is worth visiting the quarter, and a must for urban flâneurs.
