On this border pass between France and Spain there are a number of shops and restaurants (including a large supermarket) due to tax advantages. A good opportunity for long-distance hikers to buy the groceries they still need or just to enjoy a snack and a cool drink.

Apart from its practical use, however, not very attractive ;)

It's fine for eating or drinking something or buying food, but it looks nicer from outside than it does on site. Very touristy.

That tends to put off long-distance hikers.
