Located south of France and north of Spain, the small principality of ANDORRA is found amongst the high Pyrenees Mountains in Western Europe. The country is administratively divided up into seven parishes, known as parròquies in the Catalan language. The parishes are Andorra la Vella, Canillo, Encamp, Escaldes-Engordany, La Massana, Ordino, and Sant Julià de Lòria. In the parish with the same name, Andorra la Vella is the capital of Andorra.
