Maybe only one souvenir shop in Liechtenstein, where you could get something real local made. They have handmade Liechtenstein (not Swiss) chocolate, some jams, bread, and more unique designed things than any other souvenir shop here. The staff is very friendly and ready to help, but they do not insist and let you feel free.

I went with my family to Liechtenstein for a day trip. I really wanted to go there for a long time especially to the Postal Museum. And so I’ve managed to go. The Museum is not far from the bus station, the building is centrally located. The building is not only the postal museum but has all an Art exhibition space. It doesn’t cost anything to visit the museum (free admission). The exhibition on one floor and is very interesting for philatelists. At the entrance is the museum shop you can buy yearly stamp collections starting from 1940 but the price can be high. You can even buy rare stamps that cost about 1800 or even higher. There are other Philatelic items like FDC,Year Album etc. The exhibition started with the model of the post carriage showing the route it taken and different lights plus trumpets. Next to that you can sit on a stool and check on a big screen all the stamps that Liechtenstein issued, history of the post office, history about stamps and knowledge etc. Afterwards there is a corridor on the one side the different subjects issued by Liechtenstein on the other side there were pull out glass display boards where all the stamps of Liechtenstein and subjects like sport, royal family etc. A other main subject of the museum was space travel of the Russian and Chinese. Mostly FDC signed by the astronauts and a lot of information. To my mind the museum was very interesting and fascinating ,,I loved it!! Worth a trip for philatelist and who are interested in stamps.

As soon as I arrived in Vaduz, I went straight to the Liechtenstein Center and I'm so glad I did! The staff were very nice and helpful and they recommended that I buy the Liechtenstein Adventure Pass which was a great idea -- free rides on the LIEMobile bus system all over the country (and all the way to Feldkirch, Austria and Sargans, Switzerland), plus free entrances to all the museums (and a gift at the Postal Museum), a free magnet in one of the souvenir shops, you get your passport stamped (normally it's CHF3) and other good stuff. They were also very helpful in finding directions, sorting out bus schedules and setting up the free wifi in town (I need a phone number but didn't have one, so she let me use hers). Very helpful place to start visiting this beautiful country!

Faberge eggs, old guns, porcelain, old prints, and more - a real variety of items, all in one dark room. DO NOT take photos, even without flash - it is definitely not allowed. Buy your ticket for this at the National Museum & receive a small discount for the two.
