Puigcerda, Catalan Pyrenees
The capital of the Cerdanaya is Puigcerda, a town founded in 1117 which has become the area's main commercial hub and which boasts a wide array of services and facilities. Puigcerda's pond was one of the first sites in Catalonia and Spain where ice-skating became a truly popular pastime, and the town's Ice Palace hosts figure skating and ice hockey events. The pond is a true engineering masterpiece dating, from the early 14th century. Built originally to bring water to the area's farmland, has for over a century delighted visitors with the beauty of its scenery.
