Andorra La Vella has an tiny medieval city center and a modern shopping area. The sales tax in Andorra is only 4% compared to 21% in Spain or France, so there are good deals to be had.

Andorra la Vella city merges into les Escaldes town. Les Escaldes is actually in a separate parish called Escaldes-Engordany parish, but it all looks like one town to visitors. The Les Escaldes area has most of the modern shopping streets and shopping malls and a famous thermal baths called Caldea Spa.

Andorra's main activities are tourism, shopping and banking. Andorra is outside the European Union and with a sales tax of 4% it is an attractive shopping destination for French and Spanish visitors from either side of this tiny mountain country. Andorra is a fun and quirky place to visit but unless you are skiing or hiking, then a day or two in the country is fine for a visit. 
 
If you are visiting Andorra for skiing then there are one big skiing areas called Grandvalira and two other ski areas called Pal Arinsal and Ordino Arcalís

Many people visit Andorra on a day tour in connection with a stay in Barcelona, Spain.  It's a chance to see a little known unique high-altitude country that doesn't often come your way.

From Barcelona you can go on a day trip to Andorra which also visits France on the way.
