La Rambla
Location: Barcelona, Spain
There's an amazing pedestrian street in downtown Barcelona called La Rambla. It's super-wide, and lined with trees and sidewalk cafes. At night, during tourist season, it becomes a giant open-air party.
It's also famous for drugs, prostitution, pickpocketing, and combinations thereof. If you walk along the edge of La Rambla and pass by a small group of prostitutes, one might approach you and stick a hand in your pocket, both as an attempt to drum up business and to steal your wallet.
Of course, my wallet had just been stolen in Lisbon, so I didn't mind the attempted theft.
