Liechtenstein

Liechtenstein Holidays – Travel Guide

Hidden in between Switzerland and Austria, Liechtenstein seems to be a forgotten corner of Europe. The principality covers low lands such as the fertile Rhine Valley and the steep slopes in the West of the massive Three Sisters. During summertime, the mountains and valleys are filled with cyclists and people walking by. The same regions in the winter are explored by skiers. The country is dotted with picturesque villages and ancient chapels. Vaduz, the capital of Liechtenstein, offers you a rich history and numerous shops to visit. Taking into consideration the ties with Switzerland and the low taxes, Liechtenstein is one of the richest countries in the world. The country measures 6.5 km in width, 24 km in length, and has a population of 31,000 people. It is no wonder that the country is unknown to many. But even so, Liechtenstein holidays provide a relaxing getaway, far from crowded places, and an adventure in a society which combines enlightened feudalism with the modern democracy.
