Description

VanDam's 2025 StreetSmart Barcelona maps all top attractions including, museums, churches, city beaches, hotels, theaters, major architecture and more at an immensely legible scale of 1:19,000 complete with a 3-D building illustrations. Clear information design allows users to read the map from three feet away and has earned VanDam maps a place in the MoMA Collection. The map is film-laminated, accordion folded and pocket size.

Coverage: Regional Barcelona Map 1:63,000; Barcelona Street Map: 1:19,000; Ciutat Vela (Raval, Barri Gotic, La Ribera) Detail Map 1:8,900; Barceloneta Detail Map: 1:7,700 Metro TMB Map. Dimensions: 4 x 9 folded, 9 x 32 unfolded, fits into shirt pocket or purse.

StreetSmart Barcelona is so legible you will easily understand how all parts of the city connect. From La Sagrada Familia to Mont Juic, from Park Guell to Casa Mila, from Barceloneta to La Boqueria and from Barri Gotic to Tibidabo. Barcelona, the city of Gaudiesque grandeur has been a creative and design capital since Roman times. Studded with architectural treasures from Romanesque to Gothic, Baroque to Neo Classical, Art Nouveau to Modernista (La Pedrera) and Modern (Barcelona Pavillion by Mies van der Rohe) the city attracts multitudes of tourists. To avoid overtourism try to go off season.

StreetSmart Barcelona covers all the bases from God's perspective to the most minute details. A stunning dimensional detail of Ciutat Vela with its neighborhoods of Barri Gotic, La Ribera, El Born and El Raval is so clearly rendered you can gracefully navigate from Mercat La Boqueria through Ramblas to the Picasso Museum and beyond. Sporting some of the grandest boulevards in Europe such as Av Diagonal Barcelona is a walkers paradise offering urban riches made even more delightful with a map that indicates tiny medieval passages just as clearly as the grand boulevards so you always know where you are.

StreetSmart Barcelona allows you to get around the largest Gothic City in Europe with ease and features a self guided Modernista tour of the architecture of Gaudi and Lluis Domenech i Montaner. Stroll up Passeig de Gracia in the L'Example district to be awed by their modernist Gothic designs found nowhere else. The octagonal urban grid design of this district by the 19th C city planner Ildefons Cerda creates a unique rhythm and turns every intersection into a plaza. It also lets light and ventilation reach mid block. A brilliant design known to designers and urban planners as the L'Eixample Blocks. If you crave great furniture shopping this town is Mecca. Also, look for La Casa del Bacalao a store unique to Barcelona which sells only one thing: Cod in all guises.

StreetSmart Barcelona guides you from Barri Gotic to the home of FC Barcelona, one of the top soccer clubs in the world. Its Camp Nou stadium is the temple where Messi and Suarez do their magic playing futbol total. Our TMB Transport overview map combines subways, buses, local and national trains with funicular and gondola connections. All local transit stops are marked in context by line right on all maps. This enables you to confidently take public transportation after a hot day at the beach via bus, tram and funicular from Barceloneta to cool Tibidado (1,680 feet up in the coastal range). Visit the mini cathedral of Sacrat Cor, the adjacent amusem

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.
