A: Yes, the famous
Arena Mall is very close to the square, and it is easy to get from
Plaça d’Espanya.
Arena Mall served originally as a bullfight stadium, but since this sport is not one of the main national sports of Catalan people, together with the end of Franco’s regime, bullfights were banned and the stadium was rebuilt as a mall (for additional information – The History of Barcelona).
Today it is a huge mall, it has six floors which are full of famous boutiques and restaurants where tourists can spend good time. Moreover there are many nice concerts and flamenco shows in the mall (for additional information – Events in Barcelona and Shopping in Barcelona).
