The Neighborhood

This unique area is rich in history, architecture, culture, and
cuisine. Probably one of the most important works of art still in
progress,
La Sagrada Familiadesigned by famous catalan arquitect, Antoni Gaudi,
is literally 7 blocks away.

You are not far from other of his famous master pieces. Just a short
distance to the trendy Paseo de Gracia, you will find
La Pedrera (or Casa Milá), and La Casa Batlló,along with several
upscale shops and restaurants, ending at Plaça Catalunya.

Only a short walk away is the
Arc de Triomf, Parc de la Ciudadella, Barcelona Zoo, the famous Gothic
Quarter and THE BEACH. Keep going and you will find yourself in one of
Barcelona´s trendiest neighborhoods,
el Born. El Born is the new bohemian area of Barcelona where you will
find the
Picasso museum,boutiques, plenty of tapas bars, restaurants and outside
terraces to enjoy a pitcher of sangria or glass of cava. The location
is truly ideal to enjoy all of the splendors Barcelona has to offer.
A trendy area

Design lovers are attracted by the new
Museu del Disseny (Museum of Design), a fantastic zinc and glass
building by MBM Arquitectes, named as the
Design Hubin Barcelona. It is worth it to admire the installations on
the square outside or get into the library, a paradise for design
devotees

It is also an area to spot Bohemians, in their 80’s outfits. Denim and
high-waisted jeans are a must. The new mall of
Glóries Shopping Centreand the flea market of
Els Encants Vells,are their favourite places. A special mention to the
building where the market has been installed, a wavy-roofed plaza,
where traders sell everything from clothes to furniture at very low
prices on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays.

One of the tallest landmarks in Barcelona skyline is located in this
area, la
Torre Agbar by Jean Nouvel. People around this area are basically
mid-range executives in their suits. Men and women who like to have
lunch in fancy places such as the
Meat Corner in Avenida Diagonal or at the sushi place
Nanaya 22, ideal to “see and be seen”.

Culture lovers live and breathe in Glòries. Young and middle-age
couples, smartly dressed, rub shoulders with drama and music students,
and find their way to the
National Theatre of Catalunya or to L’Auditori, across the street, to
enjoy an exquisite cultural evening.

L’Auditori is, which is right in front of the
Ascot apartment, is a modernist complex that houses a music museum,
music school and the grand hall, where the Symphony Orchestra of
Barcelona play stirring classical works. Take advantage that you are
there, and make the most of your stay attending to a musical event.

The Ascot...we gave you the know-how, now it is your turn to go and get
into the action!

This Property is non-smoking.
