Andorra

Submitted by skykid on Sunday, 1 June 2008View Comments

During the recent trip across Europe I spent a day in Andorra. Most of you may have never heard of this small West European country situated high in the Pyrenees mountains between France and Spain. The landscape there is breath taking and the ski tracks seemed huge and well developed. Actually that was one of the things I know about Andorra before going there myself – there are no taxes there, the most amazing ski tracks are located there and there are no patent laws or anything remotely similar to them. Few months ago when I went skiing in one East European country I met a boy from Ireland who highly recommended Andorra to me – saying that he had a blast skiing there with his family .

Andorra is not a big country – information about it is available in Wikipedia and according to it its current population is only about 71,822 people. If you plan to head to Andorra for your next winter vacation – check out the travel guide of WikiTravel and be aware that you have to be an experienced driver to get to the country

Did you know about Andorra before reading this post ? Have you been there yourself ?

    Yes, I've known about Andorra since I was a child.
    I even have some of its old money (pre-euro) It is a principality, with co princes: the Spanish bishp of Urgel and the President of France. Fascinating!
