advice: never stay by “la rambla”

[@bossboy191919]

Why. It is not as bad as people say. I never had problems there

[@norton54326]

[@romains4845]

[@GamerRetro90]

Okay, I kinda sorry to come here bursting the buble, but MACBA is not as pretty as it seems from this video, and I know what I'm talking about, because I was born and raised in thsi city and Ive been living here for 31 years now, all my life, and I've spent my fair time going out to MACBA and all the bars and night spots in that zone, and yeah, at a first view it can be pretty with all the skaters, all the happy people having a good time, all the bars and the party... But it's not. MACBA is in a neighborhood called Raval, and without taking in account another neighborhood called La Mina, which is kinda outside the city, not so centric, Raval is the worst zone in all Barcelona... Drugdealers, drug addicts, prostitutes, fights, thefts, dangerous people, you always find the police arresting someone... It's the worst part of the city, it's not a nice place, Barcelona is a beautiful place, I love it, I love having been born and raise here, I love living here, it's a great city... But like any other city in the world it has its dark places, and Raval could be the darkest of them all, maybe the second darkest cause La Mina is even worst, but La Mina is not as centric and touristic as Raval is, so that makes Raval more dangerous. And I don't wanna disrespect this video either, I loved it, I even liked it and subscribe to these channel because of it, and I don't even skate, that's how good it is... But as a true "barcelonian" I felt like I needed to leave this warning: If you come to Barcelona and take a stroll through Raval, specially at night and specially nowadays, is the easiest way you have in this city to return home without your phone or your wallet, or even end up in a hospital. So yeah, come visit the city, even come visit MACBA and Raval, specially if you're a skater, cause yeah, everything this video says it's true, it's an excellent area to skate and party... But be vigilant, cause it's an excellent zone to get robbed or stabbed as well.

[@sodskater]

Good promo but what's the truth about this city? No doubt it's one of the best for skateboarding but i heard you can get ripped off easily, get kicked out more, etc. Any opinions from the locals?

[@Basuko_Smoker]

Be sure to lock your house every time, if someone in Spain enters your house, it's their property now basically. And no, it's not bs, search for Okupa

[@estebanmonge4268]

Just watch your stuff like in any other big city... obviously if the spot is a bank or something like that of course, but there's a lot of non-kicked-out spots all over the city... What happens in the video is true... Life is like that...

[@MightyenaWildclaws]

@@Basuko_Smoker that's bullshit hahahah, allanamiento de morada, not okupa. They are both very different things however alarm and security companies have joined hands with banks to point their fingers at homeless people taking abandoned houses saying they will literally rob your house from you, and that is indeed bs.

[@Basuko_Smoker]

@@MightyenaWildclaws yeah sure, that is why, whenever you call the cops on a situtation like that, they won't act at all, until a judge says so, which takes between 6months-2years, and when that person Who intrudes your property, can live off for free, while you pay their shit at your cost

[@MightyenaWildclaws]

@@Basuko_Smoker compañero, que sé lo que me dices pero que eso se llama allanamiento de morada, no okupación.

[@zenheadshot3742]

Local here, but like long long time ... My 5 cents, BCN now is a shithole designed for the poor and rich tourists enjoyment and some local elites too, and Raval is kept ina slow bleeding state by vulture funds, corrupt politicians and retarded dealers, thiefs and tourists that don’t give a fuck about the neighborhood improvement. if you enjoy the city like the inbreed degenerate hipsters do, you are part of the problem.

@@baltomontion9512 You can get very decent weed for 5€ a gram too, so that would be 17.5€ for an eight. So 21$ . Not bad at all :)

[@Chronomatrix]

It's not legal though, technically you can only become a member of a cannabis club if someone already inside the club endorses you, and you need a valid spanish ID to do so. In reality clubs don't care much about technicalities though...
