In Las Fotos de los Lectores de La Vanguardia we can see the sunrise for the Barcelonès community, a sunrise shared by several municipalities in the Barcelona area.
In the image, we can distinguish, for example, two of the three towers of the Tres Chimeneas de Sant Adrià de Besòs, one of the icons of Barcelonès North.
This territory occupies part of two counties, in reality, and includes the municipalities of Badalona, ??Santa Coloma de Gramanet and Sant Adrià de Besòs, in Barcelonès, and Montgat and Tiana, in Maresme.
The geographical space it occupies is marked by the Besòs River, the Mediterranean coast and the Sierra de Marina. Its total area is 43.85 square kilometers.
The population belonging to the territory of Barcelonès Nord is around 380,000 people, and it has a population density of 8,664 inhabitants per square kilometer. In fact, this is one of the most densely populated areas of the Barcelona metropolitan area.
