Smart Stack of Cars

Smart Stack of Cars


Believe me I don´t get tips for this pseudo ad, but if you like cars like me you have to admit that it is a great display. I had seen this car dealership many times but it never occurred to me that it would be so photo friendly. You can see it near El Corte Inglés (Diagonal Ave.), a nationwide chainstore and maybe the richest together with Zara.

Rambla de Cataluña: Posing Giraffe




This graceful giraffe is called Coqueta (coquettish) and with it you enter Rambla de Cataluña through the mountain side (in Barcelona when you give directions everything is mountain side or sea side). The sculpture was made by Josep Granyer in 1972. At the far end of this long avenue, that is, sea side you will finally meet a bull, a bronze one of course by the same artist. This main artery is a must if you travel to Barcelona because of the sights, the architecture and the great variety of restaurants and shops in the area.
