Liechtenstein

It is so relaxing – and worth a visit, especially if you live in Europe. I can understand why others would think it was a waste to stop here if you have a limited time or are on a short 2 week trip, since it’s kind of hard to get to.

This is a beautiful and relaxing little country with loads of charm. Don’t come here expecting loads of entertainment – the natural beauty is plenty!

Definitely stop at the Prince’s vineyard (Hofkellerei) it is one of the most beautiful places you can imagine. While you are there get some wine to ‘export’ since you aren’t able to buy this outside of Liechtenstein. It is on the ‘main drag’ before you get to downtown Vaduz if you are driving south.

Another surprising thing was that Swarovski crystal is headquartered here.

Don’t forget to get your passport stamp for 2€ at the tourist office.

This map is particularly helpful with details of attractions and how to make reservations.

We are leaving Saturday morning -I’ll be sure to take a lot of beautiful photos!

I’d love to bike across the country, drink the exclusive wine that isn’t exported, and of course get the quintessenial passport stamp.

We are thinking about heading here in the coming weeks! I’m sure it will be a pleasant time. Perhaps we will even run into the prince!
