Mercat de la Boqueria

El Raval · interiors · $

I'm not recommending the Boqueria for the food. I'm recommending the ironwork before the juice stands appear. That roof structure at 8 a.m.

The 1840 iron and glass market structure on La Rambla. At opening hour, before the tourist stalls set up, the cast iron columns and the glazed ceiling panels are legible.
