Terrain Information

Barcelona faces the Mediterranean to the southeast. It sits on a plain bordered by the Besós River (to the north), the Llobregat River (to the south), the rocky outcrop of Montjuich, and the Tibidabo Mountains (to the west). Barcelona was heavily secured and did not spread far beyond its medieval confines until the 19th century.

In the 19^th century, urbanization took hold, and suburbs sprang up, and the city grew. The merging of a strong core and a highly developed industrial belt has made Barcelona one of the most crowded cities in the world.
