Map of La Salut neighbourhood in Gràcia,
El Raval
Until the mid 14th century the area was a market garden outwith the city’s walls, supplying the city’s residents with fresh produce.
La Dreta de l'Eixample
Passeig de Gràcia is host to Gaudí's La Pedrera and La Manzana de la Discordia — the Block of Discord — where you'll encounter buildings by the three giants of Modernista architecture — Gaudí, Domènech i Montaner and Puig i Cadafalch.
The oldest part of the neighbourhood is the area between Carrer Sagués and Carrer Amigó but the main centre is around the market.

Vila de Gràcia is also well-known for its political activism, with frequent protsts, meetings and direct action which occasionally provoke a heavy-handed response from the Mossos d’Esquadra’s Mobile Group (anti-disturbance police).
You could easily spend a whole month strolling and grazing around, stopping off at squares, window shopping and dancing ’til you drop, and never get its measure.
