ANDORRA LA VELLA - GREEN FUCHSIA


Located in a valley in the Pyrenees, at an altitude of over 1000 meters, Andorra la Vella is one of Europe's highest capitals. Its high location affects the amount of ultraviolet radiation that reaches the city. Strong colours created by the powerful sunlight contrast with the dark green shadows from the surrounding mountains.
At night, the purple electric magenta lights from the numerous shops illuminate the streets of the capital. Some street lights are also violet and the blue red yellow flags of Andorra decorate lamp posts.
The capital has a strong mixture of natural and artificial colours. The city's backgound is always forest green that is contrasted with fuchsia lights.
Andorra la Vella is green-fuchsia.
