Liechtenstein

Liechtenstein, officially the Principality of Liechtenstein, is a doubly landlocked German-speaking microstate in Central Europe, tucked away between Switzerland and Austria and with mountain slopes rising above the Rhine valley.

It owes much of its wealth to its traditional status as a tax haven, though it has in recent years taken steps to shake off its image as a tax haven and to reposition itself as a legitimate financial centre. An Alpine area, Liechtenstein is mainly mountainous, making it a winter sport destination. Many cultivated fields and small farms are found both in the south and north of the country. Liechtenstein is home to many attractions like Balzers with a beautiful church and a spectacular Gothic castle. For the best view of the swiss alps, get to Triesenberg, and you will be amazed from the landscape.
