Placa Sant Just
Placa Sant Felip Neri
Placa del Pi
Santa Domenec del Call
Passeig de Gracia
La Ramblas

Yes to all of the above. If you have time, we loved lounging at Placa Sant Pere: http://savetheguiris.com/barcelona-m...nt-pere-square.

But, then, we stayed there.

Plaça Sant Felip Neri - with its tragic Civil war history - is powerful and beautiful: http://www.localnomad.com/en/blog/20...-in-barcelona/

Plaça Brugada - close to the Barceloneta beach promenade - with the Fuente de Carmen Amaya. In hommage to the greatest flamenco dancer in history, on the site where Carmen Amaya used to collect water as a child: https://vestigiosdebcn.wordpress.com...isto-el-mundo/
Out of this world Rocío Molina dancing here in May 2013: https://vimeo.com/68734588

Plaça del Sortidor in Poble Sec. http://www.minube.com/fotos/rincon/1909841/7003091

Poble Sec is in general a pictoresque tapas heaven: http://www.travelersdigest.com/667-b...a-tapas-trail/
