The Plaça Reial, next to La Rambla is famous for the nightlife and the uniform architecture. It is considered to be one of the most beautiful squares in the world. It was build during the XIX century in the place of a monastery, after the Mendizábal law expelled the monks.
A new square was built, making all the buildings look the same, with fountains and palm trees. After some years, Antoni Gaudí, the famous architect, designed the streetlights which are still there.
The Plaça Reial is one of the places of more activity during the day, thanks to the many terraces of the restaurants where you can eat something. One to try is: "Les Set Portes". It is also a good place to go for a drink or a dance.
