| | Overview (Source: Frommers) |
130km (80 miles) E of Zurich; 38km (24 miles) E of Chur Vaduz (pronounced Va- dootz ) is the capital of the Principality of Liechtenstein. Vineyards surround this little town (pop. about 5,000) at the foot of the royal family's castle. The rural commune, known for its good wines, is also very hospitable and sociable to visitors. The capital is most often visited on a brief stopover -- just time enough to buy some of the famous postage stamps and record the visit to this tiny country in your passport. But as the capital of one of the last vestiges of the Holy Roman Empire and the seat of the only German-speaking monarchy in the world, Vaduz merits a closer look -- at least to walk its streets and visit some of its museums.
