1.  Plaça de Sants - Plaça de l'Olivereta
 ENGLISH
The best strolls to pié by the district. Because to know the district it is the first step to want it
 <METRO> LINEA 1 "PLAÇA DE SANTS" Y LINEA V "PLAÇA DE SANTS"
 
We began this stroll from the Plaça de Sants, walking by the wagon direction 
Hospitalet
 
To about 250 mts. we take the Sant Medir street to the left
 
 Where we discovered the Mercat de Sants
 
This market was inaugurated in the 1913 i was called Mercat Nou, since the old one was located in the Plaça d'Osca
 <METRO> LINEA 1 "MERCAT NOU"
We lowered by the Sant Medir street until  Canalejas street. And soon we were with the Rambla Badal (photo). Watching towards the Tibidabo we can observe the Foster tower
 
Rambla Badal  watching towards the South. To emphasize that by the subsoil the Cinturó de Ronda or B10 passes. And also we will be able to see the railroads that enter Barcelona
 
Continuing by the street of Canalejas we arrived at the l'Olivereta square that must its name to an old olive tree that was in the zone
 <METRO> LINEA 1 "SANTA EULÀLIA" Y  LINEA V "BADAL"
In the district several chimneys like this persist, that they constitute a memory of the textile factories that were in 
abundance and which they were known like "vapors". 
Once arrived at this point we return to seat of Sants by the same way by which we have come
<METRO> LINEA 1 "PLAÇA DE SANTS" Y LINEA V "PLAÇA DE SANTS"
If it uses transport public, it will find in seat of Sants meter of lines 1 and 5, thus like several lines of  bus
