Movistar 5G and Orange 5G cover central Barcelona, the Eixample, Gracia, El Born, Barceloneta and the Metro corridor with reliable data for El Tenedor reservations, Bizum payments and Google Maps walks through the Gothic Quarter and the Passeig de Gracia. Signal holds along the entire Passeig de Gracia above ground and inside the modern La Maquinista shopping center, drops inside the older stone halls of the Sagrada Familia where the thick Gaudi columns and the stained glass block reception, and weakens on the slopes of Park Guell where the elevated terrain and the vegetation reduce the line of sight to the nearest tower.

Yes, eSIM works around the Sagrada Familia with 5G coverage for photos and navigation, but signal may weaken inside the deeper halls where the thick Gaudi columns and the stained glass filter the signals.
