Get away from the typical tourist areas and learn about Barcelona's long history with the science of Urban Planning.
Urbanism was born in Barcelona as a new scientific discipline. It started with one of the most progressive plans for urban expansion ever, but the original plan was corrupted by greed.
The city is correcting this now with sweeping changes of reclaiming the streets from cars and priotizing the people who live here!
