Where is Olympic village in Barcelona


The Olympic Village in Barcelona, often referred to as "Vila Olímpica" in Catalan and "Villa Olímpica" in Spanish, was built for the 1992 Summer Olympics hosted by the city.

It is located in the coastal area of the city, specifically in the district of Sant Martí, along the Mediterranean Sea.

The Olympic Village was constructed as part of the extensive redevelopment of Barcelona's waterfront and is situated to the east of the city center.

The Olympic Village was designed to house the athletes and officials participating in the 1992 Olympics. After the games, the area was repurposed and developed into a residential and recreational area, with modern apartment buildings, parks, and amenities. It's a popular and attractive neighborhood in Barcelona, known for its proximity to the beach, restaurants, bars, and leisure facilities.

The Olympic Village is a nice place for visitors to explore, whether for its contemporary urban design or its recreational opportunities, including the nearby beaches and Port Olímpic marina, which is currently under renovation.
