Guide to the Andorra
Andorra is a healing land rich in historical artifacts
The Principality of Andorra is located at an altitude of more than a kilometer, in the southern part of the Eastern Pyrenees. Bordered by France and Spain, the country is surrounded by mountainous uplands. The prevailing sunny climate is due to the proximity of the territory to the Mediterranean.
The economy of Andorra is built due to a large number of ski resorts, which are united in the Vallnord and Grandvalir zones. There are trails of various difficulty levels.
The guests of the region are met by the capital of the state Andorra la Vella. Shopping lovers will appreciate a wide range of goods from leading world brands. Also on the territory of the city is the medieval church of Casa de la Val, the chapel of the House of the Valleys, as well as a museum with a variety of collections of postage stamps. The La Margineda Bridge, built in the 12th century, is a must-see. This miracle of medieval architecture is arranged in the vicinity of the capital.
Ski lovers are invited to the small town of Encamp, located in the Grandvalir zone. The Funicamp lift is installed here, which will take tourists straight to the snow-covered slopes of Grau Roig and Pas de la Casa. This resort corner is equipped with a large number of entertainment facilities, such as sports complexes, shops, saunas and cafes.
Those wishing to enrich the experience of visiting cultural places are recommended to go to the town of Ordino. Among the outlines of medieval buildings in the Romanesque style is the Museum of Miniatures and the former possession of the D'Areni family, Plandolite, built in the 19th century. In the region dominated by Catholicism, the Museum of Orthodox Iconography of St. George is surprisingly located. In the village of La Cortinada, adjacent to Ordino, the Andorran Museum of Natural History was built, next to which there is still a functioning 18th-century mill. You can enjoy all the splendor of the untouched nature of Andorra by visiting the reserve of the Sorteni Valley.
In the city of Escaldes, there are many healing springs rich in natural minerals. Their waters are also used for various water attractions. In the same city, you must visit the Perfume Museum, where you can learn everything about the history of creating unique aromatic compositions.
A visit to Andorra will give tourists a lot of unforgettable experiences. A wide range of leisure activities will satisfy the needs of even the most sophisticated tourists!
