Shopping In Spain

Submitted by Chas Dietrich | RSS Feed | Add Comment | Bookmark Me!

Shopping in Spain is a more relaxed and more economical affair than in the rest of Europe.Bargaining is widespread here and you've got a good chance of finding some real bargains.

Shopping In Barcelona

Here's a city that's reinvented itself in the last decade and a vibrant shopping scene has emerged in the process. You'll find all the big names here - Chanel, Max Mara, Loewe, Benetton, Zara, and Diesel - jostling for your attention and your credit card.

You'll find that boutiques line the avenues along with futuristic malls and beguiling markets. And if you ever get tired of garments, you can head to the throng of antique shops and art galleries.

Te Circuit del Born is the place to go if you want garments and accessories to transform yourself into a Spaniard. You'll find it in the Ciutat Vella’s Ribera district. It is home to many small studio and shops retailing the creations of local craftsmen and artisan. Specialties include silk items, and designer shoes and clothing.

For a richer experience and a glimpse into Catalonia's mercantile past, head for the streets around the Barri Gòtic. These streets are packed with traditional offering from fish, candles and herbs to bullfighter's capes.

Opening times for shops in Barcelona is around 8 am and they tend to close a few hours after sunset.

Shopping In Madrid

Spain's capital is home to an estimated 50000 stores selling everything from the latest fashion clothing, paintings, ceramics and guitars.

Madrid offers the best up-market shopping outlets in Spain. Most of the designer fashion shops lie in the eastern Salamanca district. Here the international temples of fashion such as Prada, Armani, and Louis Vuitton, share space with popular Spanish designers like Sybilla, Amaya Arzuaga, and Victorio & Lucchino.

But if you're weary of grand boutiques, you're in for a treat on Sunday mornings in the form of the El Rastro street market. For this event the Calle de Ribera de Curtidores closes to traffic and is transformed in to this great open-air bazaar offering everything from live chickens to pirated movies, antiques of dubious antiquity and erotic post cards. What's more, it's a truly Spanish event. But keep a close eye on your wallet and camera.

LinkedIn Recommendation: Carl Madden - Search Engine Marketing Consultant at Osato Tree - There are many times I have been stuck on something, but now I that I am working with Teo Graca, I know I can get unstuck quickly. He has a way of getting at the meat of the solution to any problem when it comes to business planning. I really don't know anyone with such a well rounded skill set. I think that is what makes it possible for him to do what he does. I highly recommend Teo and Net-Teams! - March 15, 2012, Carl was Teo's client
