Liechtenstein July 2013
Our visit to Liechtenstein was short and sweet.
We travelled through the border without knowing it. Felt a bit strange being such a small country. We had a short time in Vaduz.
Liechtenstein is a small German-speaking country entirely within the Alps. It is known as a principality as it is a constitutional monarchy headed by a prince. . Lot of its terrain is mountainous, making it a winter sports destination. Many cultivated fields and small farms characterize its landscape both in the south (Oberland, upper land) and in the north (Unterland, lower land).
