Andorra la Vella City


Andorra la Vella is the capital of the Principality of Andorra. It is located high in the east Pyrenees, between France and Spain. It is also the name of the parish that surrounds the capital. As of 2015, the city has a population of 22,886 and the urban area which includes Escaldes-Engordany plus satellite villages has over 40, 000 inhabitants. The principal industry is tourism, although the country earns foreign income from being a tax heaven. Being at an elevation of 1,023 meters (3,356 ft) it is the highest capital city in Europe and popular ski resort. 

The card was sent from the French side of the postal system in the country.
