Carrer del Rec

Carrer del Rec runs through the fashionable El Born district, home to a run of independent boutiques carrying local and international designer labels rather than the mainstream chains found elsewhere in the city. It has a quieter, more upscale feel than the crowded lanes near the Picasso Museum just around the corner, with its trendy and aesthetic scores reflecting a street favored by visitors interested in design-conscious, higher-price-point fashion.
