Liechtenstein tailor-made holiday ideas
VaduzIt may feel more like a small alpine village than a national capital - you can jog end-to-end in five minutes - but Vaduz is still a charming place. The Schloss Vaduz (Vaduz Castle) is not open to the public, but its exterior is well-photographed. The impressive castle sits high above the town, and a short stroll up to its base reveals some magnificent mountain views of the area around Vaduz. A network of marked trails winds along the ridge. Country 'collectors' - who comprise many of Liechtenstein's visitors - can request a stamp for their passport at Vaduz's tourist information office.
Briefmarken-MuseumA haven for philatelists, the Postage Stamp Museum in Vaduz exhibits 300 frames of national stamps, issued since 1912. The National Library, National Museum and Ski Museum are also worth a look.
KunstmuseumHoused in a sleek modern building, the Art Museum exhibits some fine paintings from the Prince's private collection, including works by Rembrandt, Rubens and Van Dyck.
Malbun & Steg ski resortsWhizz down the snowy slopes of Liechtenstein's ski resorts. Nestled amid the mountains in the south-east corner of the country, the resort of Malbun has some excellent runs, with good facilities, and is regarded as a good destination for beginners. Close by, the resort at Steg has become popular for cross-country skiing, with its loop offering three separate distances. The track is also open at night.
Schellenberg Little village in the north, with a monument to the night in 1945 when 500 Russian soldiers crossed the border.
Rheinpark Stadium Home of fc Vaduz, who play football in the Swiss league. The stadium also hosts international matches, including World Cup and European Championship qualifying fixtures.
