3 bedroom duplex apartment in Plaza Espana (code: 3_6e)Apartment Description: This Duplex situated in Sants (Plaza España, eixample), has three double bedrooms on the top floor (1 double, 1 with a bunk bed and 1 with two single beds) and a complete bathroom with shower and bath. In the bottom floor there is a full-equipped kitchen (with fridge-freezer, microwave, teapot, toaster, oven, washing machine and dryer, table with four chairs), a living room (2 sofas, television and stereo) and 1 toilette. Location: This district is one of the most extensive and highly populated parts of the city. It stretches upwards from Gran Via and Plaza Espanya, one of the most important transit points of the city, to the other major transportation hub, Sants train station. Sants Station is currently the main train station in Barcelona, as much for national routes as international. The main commercial artery of the zone is the Creu Coberta street, which probably has the greatest concentration of shopping in all of Barcelona. The original district had little in common with its present reality. Back then the streets were fields of wheat, vines and cereals - until the railway arrived and the commerce that soon followed. Plaza Espanya lies on the edge of Montjuïc, the small mountain that overlooks the modern port. This area received a special boost during the Olympic Games of Barcelona in 1992, and is where the Olympic Stadium is found as well as the Palau Sant Jordi, the Museu National d'Art Catalunya (MNAC), the Poble Espanyol, and the Fundació Joan Miró. A visit to the castle of Montjuïc is also recommended, since it has featured highly in most of the history of the city and has today been renovated and now houses the Military Museum. Just by Plaza Espanya are the famous Magic Fountains which are illuminated in different colours and dance to the music to delight the tourists who come to see it. Getting there: Main Metros: Plaza Espanya (Lines 1 & 3) and Sants (Lines 3 & 5) Nearest Landmarks: Sants Station , Plaza Espanya
