Explore Carrer del Rec, El Born's stylish shopping street away from the crowds. Browse independent boutiques and design-forward local labels for a quieter, upscale take on Barcelona fashion.
Full description
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.
