My favourite street. It is pedestrian so you can stroll and enjoy the feeling and the beautiful architecture. It is next to the flat so you should really go there and have a coffee or eat at one of the good restaurants.

This is the main commercial street in the neighbourhood. It is fun to stroll there and see all the people and places. Pay attention to the singular architecture with amazing facades from the XIX and early XX century. On one end there is the Parque de San Telmo and on the other Vegueta, both a must visit.
