Viella

Vielha e Mijaran is a municipality in Aran, Lleida, Spain. It was created in 1970 by the merger of the municipalities of Arròs e Vila, Betlan, Escunhau, Gausac, Vielha and Vilac: some of the former municipalities retain some privileges as "decentralised municipal entities", as does the village of Betren. Mijaran literally means "Middle Aran" in Aranese, as the inhabited part of the municipality is situated in the valley of the Garonne. The Noguera Ribagorçana has its source on the territory of the municipality, on the opposite side of the watershed. The ajuntament is in Vielha, spelled Vielha in Occitan and Viella in Catalan and Spanish, which is also the capital of Aran.

The municipality is linked to France and to the rest of Catalonia by the N-230 road. The C-28 road continues up the valley to Naut Aran, and on over the Port de la Bonaigua to the comarca of Pallars Sobirà.
