Llívia is a town in the comarca of Cerdanya, province of Girona, Catalonia, Spain. It is a Spanish exclave surrounded by the French département of Pyrénées-Orientales. It is named after Livia, the wife of Augustus and matriarch of the Julio-Claudian dynasty. Because of a technicality in the Treaty of the Pyrenees, signed in 1659, that transferred only "villages" in the Pyrenees to France, Llívia, which was a "town", remains under Spanish control. The Segre river, a tributary of the Spanish Ebro, flows through Llívia. It has a population of 1,562 .

As you explore Llivia, you'll quickly notice that it's unique from the rest of Spain. That's because it's actually an enclave - a piece of Spain that's entirely surrounded by France. This means that you'll have the opportunity to experience both Spanish and French influences in the town's architecture, language, and cuisine.

Llivia's history dates back to the Roman Empire, where it served as a military base. Today, you can still see remnants of its past in the old city walls and the Church of Santa Maria. The town is also famous for its medicinal hot springs, which have been used for healing purposes since the Middle Ages. You can still soak in these natural baths at the Llivia Thermal Baths, which offer a range of treatments and massages.
