Passeig de Gràcia is one of the most famous avenues in Catalonia as well as one of the major ones in Barcelona. It is known for its touristic, business and comercial relevance. Another strong characteristic from this avenue is its modernist architecture. Because it is a wealthy avenue, with all its fancy and expensive trademark brands, it can seem difficult to find a place to eat something at a reasonable price. But if you venture just a little bit off the path, you can find a nice, affordable meal, and then go back to the popular avenue.
