This tiny principality nestled in the heart of the Pyrenees, between France and Spain has just the right recipe for a fun holiday. It is a cultural treasure trove, although the traditions and language are oure Catalan. Andorra's valuable natural resource, heavy winter snow for about six months of a year has made it a skiing heaven. With plenty of events and 'village festivals' in the many hamlets, you can get a taste of the exuberant Andorran culture. La Seu d'Urgell, a lively Spanish town, Cathedral de Santa Maria, an outstanding Romanesque structure or the Museu Diocesà make great sightseeing.
Language: Catalan. Currency: Andorran franc (FF) and peseta (pta)
