Nowadays, Barcelona is a huge city that is
trying to lead other cities in the world. In fact is trying to develop new
strategies and to surpass itself by making new things.
Today we are going to explain you one of
its newest concepts that every time more and more cities are trying to carry
out.
Do you ever feel really hungry that want to
go urgently to a bakery? Or, do you ever forget your friend’s present? Now, it is not a
problem because there are several cities that have some shops and restaurants that are
opened all the day.
Barcelona is trying to develop the same
strategy. The city is trying to be one of these future towns. Barcelona, is implementing a new standard shift in order to maintain the most “primary
shops”, as restaurants, bakeries and sport centres which are opened a minimum of 18 hours
but they are usually 24 hours, indeed. In fact is possible to eat a baked
croissant, photocopy some documents, buy some fresh fish or to make your
service car at midnight.
This new timetable is not so different than Barcelona’s subway, because is opened without interruption all the
weekend. This sum up a total of 43 hours.
This new concept came from the shop phenomenon
with less than 150 metres square full of people until dawn. Nowadays, there are
lots of these shops in Ciutat Vella and l’Eixample. In fact, these new type of
shops with that new strategy tries to gain people attention so they will probably
come two times during the day; if is a bakery, for breakfast and to buy a snack
at midnight. Is a new strategy that will capture people interest for sure.
So if you want to eat a muffin, to print some documents or to be fit you only have to leave your home and do it, even at night.
