Images of Andorra la Vella, Andorra|
ANDORRA LA VELLA: Andorra la Vella is located in the south west of Andorra, at the confluence of two mountain streams. Located at an Altitude of 1409m, it is a high capital and popular ski resort. Its climate is Alpine with cold winters and warm, drier summers. Temperatures range from an average of around -1°C in January and 20°C in July; rainfall is at 808mm a year. Surprsingly for a Capital city, it is three hours drive from the nearest airports, at Tolouse, Girona, Perpignan and Barcelona. This is a result of its small population size and high relief. It has no train station either, with a bus servie linking the city to the French station at L'Hospitalet, which has mainline services to Paris. |
|
SIGHTS AND CULTURE: The city's old town is characterized by old stone streets and houses. The central Eglesia de Sant Estave is part of the area that guidebooks often label as picturesque part of the city. This was built in a Romanesque style in the Eleventh Century. As mentioned earlier, the old town also includes the country's historic parliament building. Probably the oldest building in the city is another church, dating from the Ninth Century, of Santa Coloma. The city is the country's cultural centre, with the Government Exhibition Hall acting as a main theatre and museum. The piazza outside the parliament bulding is also the location of a number of events, and the town hosts a music festival every winter. |

HISTORY OF ANDORRA LA VELLA: The site of Andorra la Vella (literally, "Andorra the Old") has been settled since prior to the Christian era - notably by the Andosin tribe from the late Neolithic. The state is one of the Marca Hispanica created and protected by Charlemagne in the Eighth Century as a buffer from the Moorish settlers in the Iberian Peninsula. The settlement has been the principal city of Andorra since 1278 when the French and the Episcopal co-princes agreed to joint suzerainty. Andorra La Vella's old town - the Barri Antic - includes streets and buildings dating from this time. Its most notable building, the Casa de la Vall (constructed in the early Sxiteenth Century) has been used as the state's parliamentary house since 1707. Andorra la Vella was, during this period, the capital of a largely isoslated and feudal state, which retained its independence due to this principal of co-sovereignty. This isolation also means that the city's history is poorly documented. Well into the twentieth century, the area around Andorra La Vella remained largely forgotten - indeed the state was excluded from the Treaty of Versailles, simply because it was not noticed. After political turmoil in the 1930's and an attempted coup by King Boris I, an informal democracy developed. In 1993, the country's first constitution formalised this parliamentary democracy with executive, legislative, and judicial branches located in Andorra la Vella. During this period, Andorra also developed as both a tax haven, resulting in the construction of modern banking offices in Andorra La Vella. The city also developed its skiing facilities, to the extent that Andorra la Vella was Andorra's applicant city for the XXI Olympic Winter Games, the 2010 Winter Olympics. However, Andorra la Vella was not selected by the IOC as candidate city, following the evaluation report of an IOC commission. |
