25 October Vaduz Old Town

 


Vaduz has an old town that houses an old church, several museums and a bunch of eateries.  We wanted to get our passports stamped with a Lichtenstein stamp but the postal museum was closed for lunch from 12 to 1PM.  So we had to wait and get them stamped after they opened.  First we walked along the pedestrian walkway with its multiple sculptures.  Then we went around the church and also inside.  These is a mix of old and new here as it was in Austria.  


Our dinner table is also our breakfast table.  This time it has a much more extensive selection


These mountains were backlit by the sun yesterday


Today we can see that there is snow on the top


So groovy


Driving into town


Tight streets


Looking for Art Lovers


Old style sturdy


Even the chimneys on top of the houses are cute.


Stark yellow brick architecture on the Parliament building 


Cool colors on these stand alone mirrored structures


Lovely balance of lines and colors


The music school


Etched glass in the windows


Wrapped up for now


The Cathedral was built in 1874 on top of an older church


Cool use of flowers


Love the yellows


Big mountains over 3000 meters


The new buildings just across the road

Lots of light gets in
