Still, it's home to the Prince's castle and his museums, and thus the main point of interest for visitors to this small country.

How much time should you spend in Vaduz?

We would say that one day is plenty to spend in Vaduz - you certainly wouldn't want to book a city break here unless you were using it as a jumping off point for hiking in the surrounding Alps.
