Ramblas : ウィキペディア英語版
La Rambla, Barcelona

La Rambla ((:ɫə ˈrambɫə)) is a street in central Barcelona, popular with tourists and locals alike. A tree-lined pedestrian mall, it stretches for connecting ''Plaça de Catalunya'' in the centre with the Christopher Columbus Monument at Port Vell. La Rambla forms the boundary between the quarters of ''Barri Gòtic'', to the east, and ''El Raval'', to the west.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Guide to Barcelona Las Ramblas )
La Rambla can be crowded, especially during the height of the tourist season. Its popularity with tourists has affected the character of the street, with a move to pavement cafes and souvenir kiosks. It has also suffered from the attention of pickpockets and, especially towards its southern end, sex workers.〔
The Spanish poet Federico García Lorca once said that La Rambla was "the only street in the world which I wish would never end."〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Lorca i Catalunya )
== Orientation ==

La Rambla can be considered a series of shorter streets, each differently named, hence the plural form ''Les Rambles'' (the original Catalan form; in Spanish it is ''Las Ramblas''). The street is successively called:〔〔
* ''Rambla de Canaletes'' - the site of the Font de Canaletes fountain
* ''Rambla dels Estudis'' - the site of the former Jesuit University, whose only remainder is the Church of Bethlehem
* ''Rambla de Sant Josep'' (or ''de les Flors'') - the site of an open-air flower market
* ''Rambla dels Caputxins'' - the site of a former Capuchin monastery, now dominated by the Liceu opera-house
* ''Rambla de Santa Mònica'' - named after the convent of St. Monica, now an arts centre.
To the north of La Rambla lies Plaça de Catalunya, a large square in central Barcelona that is generally considered to be both its city centre and the place where the old city and the 19th century-built Eixample meet.〔
To the east of La Rambla is the ''Barri Gòtic'' or Gothic Quarter, the centre of the old city of Barcelona. The ''Barri Gòtic'' retains a labyrinthine street plan, with small squares and streets, many of which connect onto the Rambla. One of the larger of these squares is the ''Plaça Reial'', a lively 19th century square with tall palm trees and street lamps designed by Antoni Gaudí, which opens down a short entrance passage off the ''Rambla dels Caputxins''. Further into the ''Barri Gòtic'' can be found the Cathedral of Santa Eulàlia and the ''Plaça Sant Jaume'' that houses the buildings of the Generalitat of Catalonia and Barcelona’s City Council.〔
To the west of La Rambla is the rather different ''El Raval'' quarter. Outside the city's earliest walls, this area was originally the site of various religious and medical institutions. Later factories grew up along with housing for the workers, whilst the proximity to the port led to the area becoming known for its nightlife and cabarets, as well as prostitution and crime. Today the area still retains a degree of 'edge', but it also home to several important buildings, including Gaudí's ''Palau Güell'', which is only a few steps down the ''Carrer Nou de la Rambla'' from the ''Rambla dels Caputxins''.〔
At the southern end of the Ramblas is the Christopher Columbus Monument and the Port Vell, the old port of Barcelona, now largely given over to pleasure craft. Near to the port end of the Rambla are the Royal Dockyards (in Catalan, ''Drassanes''), which house a maritime museum specifically devoted to naval history in the Mediterranean
Extensions at either end of the Rambla also carry the name Rambla, but are not normally considered part of La Rambla itself. To the north, the Rambla de Catalunya extends into the Eixample district. To the south, construction of the ''Maremàgnum'' in the early 1990s resulted in a continuation of La Rambla on a wooden walkway into the harbour called the ''Rambla de Mar''.〔
