les Escaldes: Av. Nacion Unides - 1.024 metres
The Valira d’Orient defines the setting of Les Escaldes — its narrow Pyrenean valley has concentrated apartment blocks, hotels, shops and public spaces beneath steep slopes. Joined administratively with Engordany, the town forms the parish of Escaldes-Engordany beside Andorra la Vella, giving it an urban character unusual in a small mountain state. Avinguda de les Nacions Unides runs through its commercial core, where streets, traffic and landscaped squares share limited valley-floor space. Les Escaldes is closely identified with thermal water: its name refers to hot springs, and Caldea, opened in 1994, is Andorra’s signature thermal-spa complex. The wider parish also reaches into the UNESCO-listed Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley, a cultural landscape of high mountain pastures, stone buildings and routes.

Les Escaldes occupies the floor of the Valira d’Orient valley in central Andorra, forming the urban core of Escaldes-Engordany beside Andorra la Vella. The town has long been associated with thermal water: its name refers to the hot springs that once supported washing and wool-working. Caldea, the large thermal spa complex, makes that tradition a visible part of the modern skyline. Above the built-up valley, the Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley extends through the parish; its high-mountain cultural landscape is listed by UNESCO. The Romanesque church of Sant Miquel d’Engolasters and nearby Lake Engolasters provide a quieter counterpoint to the commercial streets below.

Among the countries of the eastern Pyrenees, Andorra stands out for its high mountain valleys and Catalan character. Set between France and Spain, this landlocked state is crossed by the Valira river system, whose valleys concentrate its towns, roads and much of everyday life. Catalan is the official language, and the capital, Andorra la Vella, brings together government, commerce and mountain access. In the east, the Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley is inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List as a cultural landscape shaped over centuries by pastoral use. Winter sports are central to the national calendar, while hiking and cycling take over when the snow recedes.
