Travel guide: what to do and see in Andorra
Tourist Gem: Capital de los Pirineos
Andorra la Vella, the capital of the principality of Andorra, is a unique city nestled in the Pyrenees. Known for its duty-free shops, the city is a shopping paradise, especially on Avenida Meritxell. The old town, with its cobbled streets and stone houses, is home to the Casa de la Vall, the former seat of the Andorran parliament. The 12th-century Sant Esteve church is another historical point of interest. For winter sports enthusiasts, during this season Andorra transforms into a top-tier ski destination, with nearby resorts like Grandvalira and Vallnord. In summer, the mountain trails attract hikers and nature lovers alike. In addition, Andorra boasts the Caldea Thermoludic Center, with its thermal waters and spa treatments, a popular attraction. Andorran gastronomy is heavily influenced by Catalan and French cuisine and can be enjoyed in the mountain restaurants. Andorra la Vella offers a unique combination of shopping, Pyrenean nature, and culture, making it a very singular European capital.
