Tip from tour guide
Arc La Rambla allows you to admire the beauty of the neighborhood from the comfort of your room, but you can also easily explore the area from here. A five-minute walk away is Plaça del Duc de Medinaceli (Monument a Galceran Marquet). It was built in 1844, in the shadow of the sea wall, on the site of the former convent of Sant Francesc. In the middle of the square stands a monument dedicated to Admiral Galcerán Marquet, which is made of wrought iron - the first time this material was used in the city to make decorative elements on the public thoroughfare.
