Vaduz, Liechtenstein

Vaduz is the capital of the principality of Liechtenstein, which is located between Switzerland and Austria, some 400 km/240 miles from Geneva, or 300 km/186 miles from Milan. Funny little place.

It wasn't so difficult to find the the Castle, the residence of the Reigning Prince of Liechtenstein, which sort of was the most obvious landmark in Vaduz. It was possible to drive by the castle, but as far as I know, you can not visit it, unless on guided tour.

With onyl some 5,000 inhabitans, it actually looked like a posh suburb. Could have been just about anywhere... Stopped there on the way back from Vals, actually almost missed the turn off the highway.
