🏘️ For Pedralbes Campus

Les Corts and Sant Gervasi

Les Corts is the closest neighborhood—you can walk to campus in 20-30 minutes or take Metro Line 3 (Les Corts to Palau Reial) for a shorter commute. Perfect if you prefer walking distance to campus.

Sant Gervasi is another excellent option. Take train Line 6 from La Bonanova to Reina Elisenda (5 minutes), then walk 11 minutes to campus. Or take bus 68 from Via Augusta-Ganduxer to Avinguda d'Esplugues—25 minutes total.

🌆 Vibrant City Life: World-class restaurants, bars, clubs, cultural events, and beach access right at your doorstep.

💼 Career Opportunities: Barcelona's startup ecosystem and multinational headquarters offer more internship and job prospects.
