The small principality of Andorra on the eastern periphery of the Pyrenees ducks between 65 peaks and borders Spain and France. The mountainous country has an alpine character, but is also blessed with green meadows and romantic valleys. One mountain towers above all the rest - the Pic des Coma Pedrosa with its nearly three thousand meters. Andorra la Vella is Europe's highest situated capital at exactly 1,079 meters. This is a lively metropolis with numerous stores and restaurants. In the old town Barri Antic rises the church St. Esteve from the 12th century, and visitors rave there about the baroque altar painting. If you then leave the metropolis behind, you will find yourself in a popular winter sports area.
