I've been to Liechtenstein twice, and the first time was by mistake. When I was 12, my father and I literally got on the wrong train somehow (we were connecting trains somewhere on the way from Zürich to St Moritz) and my father points out the window when the train pulled up to Vaduz and goes "do you know where this is? we're in Liechtenstein!"

No way! I've heard so many things about this place (like that the Swiss army invaded them by accident twice as well, and that they don't have anyone in jail). For some reason, in my mind, it'd be totally different from Switzerland--much more lavish and wealthy.

We got off the train to explore, and to me it felt like a pretty regular small Swiss town. We literally walked to the countryside; it seemed like not much of the country is urban. It's not at all like city-states I've seen (Singapore, HK)--there simply aren't enough people. In fact, the only thing that stood out to me was how quiet it was everywhere.
