Stylish 2 bedroom in the best area of Barcelona

This apartment is in the right area of l'Eixample and is prior Passeig de Sant Joan, another of Barcelona's beautiful boulevards, but is also alongside Gràcia, kind of Barcelona`s Montmartre with its artistic and cultural vitality. Gràcia was an independent town until the late 19th century and even now the community is small and tight. The people are exceedingly proud of their roots (they say they are from Gràcies and not from Barcelona). The area is popular with artists and a generally bohemian crowd, it also has a high ethnic population and the highest concentration of foreign restaurants in Barcelona. However, despite the trendy nature of Gràcia, it is also a very traditional district with a large elderly population which makes for an amusing and odd mix - and very entertaining people-watching! Gràcia is also well-known for it's festival which is held for 5 days in August and sees the locals competing in street decoration (they take it very seriously!). The results are usually spectacular! Pedestrian streets and squares to promenade, lots of tapas bars and restaurants, theaters, the famous Cine Verdi(one of the few original version cinemas in Barcelona), el Teatre Lliure, and original clothes stores, bookstores, schools of art, creative writing, graphic design, dance, yoga, music, and organic food stores.. and the traditional market with fresh fruits and vegetables, spicy olives, Mediterranean fish... just two streets on your right. Some recommendations about restaurants are El Disbarat, La llar de foc for catalan cuisine and Intrèpid de Gràcia, Sol Soler or Restaurant La Pepita if you wanna try tasty tapas. I'm sure you will have a lovely time during your stay!
