By the way, what is the Gayxample?
Gayxample is the gay area in Barcelona in the elegant neighbourhood of Eixample, one of the busiest areas in Barcelona with also an incomparable architecture.
Around the blocks between Calle Comte d’Urgell and Rambla Catalunya, Gran Via and Calle Provença, the Eixample stands out for its vibrant gay scene. It is full of fashionable clothes shop, bars, restaurants and cafés.
Gayxample also has a super selection of night clubs, hairdressers, saunas, etc., and all without having to set foot outside this diverse and cosmopolitan area.

Last summer I spent a month in Barcelona, in the heart of Gaixample, and found it to be a very unfriendly, youth-oriented scene. As a 45 year old from Canada, I have certainly made my social circle aware of this. The history and beauty of Barcelona are what drew me there originally, and I am very happy to say I had a great holiday … eventhough it was gay-unfriendly.
