Amélie-les-Bains-Palalda (French pronunciation: [ameli le bɛ̃ palalda] ; Catalan: Els Banys i Palaldà) is a commune in the Pyrénées-Orientales department in southern France. It is situated in the Tech valley, and combines the old and the new with a mix of narrow cobbled streets and modern accommodation. It has become a 'station verte' meaning that it must strive at all times to ensure that tourists benefit from a calm and natural environment.
