The Rambla de la Garriga, in Vallès Oriental, is its Passeig, begun in 1878 and more than a kilometer long. Even today it is the ideal place to stroll quietly, enjoy the colors of autumn and enter the world full of luxuries of the bourgeoisie of 100 years ago.
Furthermore, it is an example of the transformation of historic rural spaces into new urbanized spaces, which respond to very different social and economic needs.
The town became, at the end of the 19th century, a pole of attraction for the Barcelona bourgeoisie, who found a quiet and pleasant environment to spend the summer.
Although, as we can see in the Photos of the Readers of La Vanguardia, in autumn it invites us to contemplate the splendid colors of the trees of this season of the year.
The great summer expansion, full of large bourgeois towers, has its central axis in the Passeig, where you can walk in the trees and discover the elegant bourgeois houses. There are even routes with an audio guide.
