Visiting the 6th Smallest Country in the World and Loving Every Second of it (with authentic lunch)
I recently did a day trip to Liechtenstein, the 6th smallest country in the world, and 4th smallest in Europe! I have a fascination with micro-states. This one is very interesting. It borders Austria and Switzerland. They speak German but most people I encountered also spoke English. The country is headed by a Prince. The whole country is only 25 kms long and about 6 kms wide. You could walk across it! We started our visit in the capital of Vaduz. The population of Vaduz is about 5,000, and the whole country is only about 40,000! Here was the Prince’s castle perched above the capital.
