El Raval
The district of El Raval, was known till recently to be one of the most densely populated urban areas in the world. It is located in the medieval city quarter of Barcelona and recent and ongoing regeneration schemes have dramatically altered the social, environmental and economic characteristics of some parts of the area. However, the wider effects of the schemes have yet to fully reach many of the streets, which remain little touched since the Middle Ages. Shafts of sunlight filtering into the narrow passage-ways give a sense of drama usually reserved for film sets.
