Raval

Our underground guide to Raval. We like Raval, as dangerous and seedy as people say it is, there are a few really cool places to hang out. Less touristy as Gotico and El Born, Raval is a vibrant, historic, authentic district of Barcelona and full of personality. Here are some recommended little gems..
