As one of the most scenic countries around, the Principality of Liechtenstein offers many people a wonderful place to live and/or work.. Liechtenstein is one of the smallest countries in the world by size, but offers a huge advantage to many individuals and businesses with its attractive tax haven.. Taxes are notoriously low in Liechtenstein and this is one of the reasons why many people flock to this tiny Alp country to live.. Liechtenstein is a land locked country that is German speaking.. It is located between both Austria and Switzerland, however it is more closely aligned to Switzerland than Austria. The population of Liechtenstein is only 33,000+.. The area of Liechtenstein measures approximately 160 KM, which translates into only 77 miles of land.. The country is so small, you can drive from one border to the other in only a few minutes..! While Liechtenstein is a German speaking country, it does not share a border with Germany.. It should also be noted that Liechtenstein is a doubly land locked country, meaning that the two countries that it borders (Switzerland and Austria) are also landlocked. The currency of Liechtenstein is based on the good old Euro.. While Lichtenstein is small, it does have plenty of shops, especially in the larger towns. Since the country is filled with many wealthy individuals, there are plenty of shops that cater to this high end clientele..
The climate of Liechtenstein is continental in nature.. This means that it is generally cold in the winter and relatively warm in the summer.. During the winter time expect temperatures that hover around freezing and as you rise in the Alpine regions of the country, the temperatures can easily drop below the freezing mark.. One of the attractions of Liechtenstein is its winter resorts that cater to ski and winter sports enthusiasts. Besides being cold, winters can also be cloudy and there is frequent rain and snow. During the summer months, expect moderately warm days with some sun.. Summers can be humid at times and thus uncomfortable for some people.. During the spring time, expect frequent rain and temperatures usually rise by the very end of the spring season.. The fall time is mild with less humidity that can be chilly at times..
There are plenty of entertainment options including fine restaurants, night life, resorts, spas and live music.. While Liechtenstein is not known as a party hot spot, those that come to this beautiful country will find plenty of things to keep them entertained and occupied..
