Vallès Oriental, Administrative region in Barcelona Province, Spain

Located 30 kilometers northeast of Barcelona, Vallès Oriental contains 39 municipalities spread across valleys and mountains between the Montseny and Marina ranges.

The region transformed from a predominantly agricultural area into an industrial powerhouse during the 19th century textile manufacturing revolution in Catalonia.

Each municipality in Vallès Oriental maintains weekly traditional markets selling local products, continuing a practice that dates back to medieval times.

The capital city Granollers serves as the main transportation hub, with direct train connections to Barcelona and regular bus services throughout the region.

The Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya in Montmeló hosts Formula 1 races and attracts thousands of motorsport enthusiasts throughout the racing season.
