  • To the north-west of the city you’ll find the much sought-after barrio of Sarrià-Sant Gervasi, which is one of Barcelona’s biggest districts. Formerly a separate village, it officially became part of the city at the end of the 19th-century, and still retains something of a village-like atmosphere to this day. It’s a friendly, upper-class area of Barcelona, with relaxed plaças and lots of parks and greenery. It’s also home to quite a few fashionable shops and cafés. Known as a very safe area, it would be a good choice if you’re looking for a chic place to stay away from the hubbub of the city centre.
