Sarria is one of the best residential areas and the oldest in the upper part of Barcelona, just 10 minutes from the city center. The historic core consists of an old town urban layout, with small squares and narrow streets organized around Calle Mayor de Sarriá and Plaza de Sarriá, its main square. All of this perfectly mirrors the history of this unique neighborhood, where almost every establishment, house, or building tells us about the beginnings of what was one of the most prosperous towns on the Barcelona plain. In its progress, it became a residential area for craftsmen and Catalan bourgeois who located their summer mansions there. Currently, it is a sought-after neighborhood to live in due to its tranquility, connectivity with all of Barcelona, and preservation of that timeless neighborhood charm, with its small shops and narrow streets. We find all kinds of businesses, restaurants, markets, services, and green areas.
The best international schools are located here, and the most prestigious universities are very close. The area has excellent communication by Public Transport (railway and bus) and easy access to the city center, the Rondas, and highways.
Transport: 2 minutes walking from the funicular station, Peu del Funicular. From there to Plaza Catalunya in 10 minutes.
