Selva de Mar

A village of Catalonia

This station takes one to a street that, like many others in Barcelona, carries the name of Catalonina village in Catalonia, in this case, that of Selva de Mar. This municipality is situated in the northernmost stretch of the Costa Brava, in the district of l’Alt Empordà. The Selva del Mar St. of Barcelona is in the centre of the Provençals neighbourhood, next to the Front Marítim and the Diagonal Mar.
The street is surrounded by newly built high rises, mainly devoted to the hotel business. The entire area is affected by the urban transformation project of 22@, the most ambitious urban innovation project ever undertaken in the city of Barcelona.
