Barcelona : Shopping

La Llibertat market

Situated in a beautiful modernista building, La Llibertat market is the perfect place to experience real Barcelona life. Stalls are set side by side, selling everything from the freshest fruit and vegatables to local meat and fish.
Las Ramblas

Fantastic place to wander window shopping and stopping for the occasional coffee or ice cream to be entertained by local human statues.
Mercat de l’Abaceria

Located on the Travessera de Gràcia and opend in 1892, the Mercat de l’Abaceria was historically a farmer's market. These days it's the ideal place for a spot of shopping or just to browse the colourful stalls and soak up the atmosphere.
Natalie Capell - Atelier de Moda

One of the most unique shops for evening and wedding dresses is located in the bohemian quarter `el Borne´ in the Gothic Quarter. Entering the theatrical shop of the designer Natalie Capell, you will find a hand made fashion clothing elaborated with antique details and embroidery from the beginning of the 20th century. All displayed in a magical way.
Papbubble

A lovely sweet shop but with that little bit extra.

Rock of all shapes and sizes are on sale and, best of all, you can see it being made right in front of you. From a mass of molten sugar, the most amazing colours and patterns are created. After nipping in for a present or two you'll find you've been there nearly an hour, mesmerised by the rolling and shaping being played out on the counter.
