Reading and family space

This is a place to ‘be’. A place to relax and share a moment with those around you. A place for children to play, but also for learning and unwinding. Here you can read, exchange ideas with others, chill out or simply ‘be’.

This space is part of Barcelona’s Network of Climate Shelters. 
 
Climate shelters are spaces that provide thermal comfort for the public, especially for people who are most vulnerable to heat and cold, such as babies, older people or those with chronic illnesses. They are easily accessible, offer rest areas, drinking water and ensure a safe environment.
