Leon Information | Barrio Humedo Information | Barrio Humedo Map |
The district is famous throughout Spain for both its density and intensity of bars and clubs and because of León's reputation for free tapas bars (a snack served with each drink purchased at the tapas bars). A common practice for lots of people who visit Barrio Húmedo is to go to them, while others limit themselves to the clubs. Tapas bars tend to offer a speciality and become very famous by what kind of tapas they serve. Thus some people refer to the tapas bars by the tapas they offer instead of by their real names. The most common practice of the people who goes to the tapas bars of León (as in the rest of Spain) is to pub crawl.
Around midnight, tapas are withdrawn and many people start partying around Barrio Húmedo. There are bars and clubs for all tastes, from all kinds of rock and heavy metal bars to glamorous clubs to Irish-style pubs.
