Liechtenstein Travel Guide

The tiny European nation of Liechtenstein has close political and economic ties to Switzerland, but retains its cultural distinctness. It uses the Swiss currency and postal system, but remains autonomous. Liechtenstein is available to rent out as a country for corporate events, but is perhaps most commonly known for its postage stamps.  They are often very beautiful and entice tourists to make a stopovers to mail postcards. Philatists will enjoy the Postage Stamp Museum in the capital of Vaduz. Also in Vaduz is the Liechtenstein Kunstmuseum, with its art collections. Near the city are multitudes of hiking trails taking you through the surrounding alpine scenery. The ski resort of Malbun contains good downhill runs for skiers of all skill levels. Good hiking opportunities are also available around Malbun in warmer months. Liechtenstein contains a number of smaller villages that you can explore while admiring the setting.
