Andorra, Principality Of


1
Andorra is a tiny nation in the Pyrennes of Europe.  This is me after we crossed the border from France into the principality.

3
Andorra is very mountainous.  There are lots of ski resorts too.

2
The capital city is Andorra La Vella.  The capital is very modern and has this unique sculpture of a clock near the little river that flows through the city.

4
The capital city has a Hard Rock Cafe too!

5
Andorra is not part of th EU, and they have no sale tax so there are lots of shops and malls.  It is also a very wealthy nation!  Lots of nice cars like that Porsche are driven by their citizens.

6
Yes, they have a Burger King, but I wanted to point out the cigarette ad which is still legal there since the tobacco industry is big there.

   Andorra is a tiny pricipality in the Pyrennes Mountains between France and Spain.  The country has two co-princes who are the Bishop of Urgel in Spain and whomever is the President of France.  A very wealthy nation, they are not part of the EU.  It is also a shopper's paradise since there are no sales taxes.  Tobacco is a major product of Andorra.  It is very hard to become a citizen there.  One must live there for twenty years or marry someone who is.
