San Marino Travel Guide: Notes on San Marino Tourism

San Marino is a typical small European country, a country on the edge of a cliff, where you will find adventures and opportunities, explore the depths of your soul and body, and look for long-lost inspiration. Here, I would like to share with you the precautions and detailed strategies of San Marino tourism.

have you been to every corner of your country? Most people's answer should be no. After all, I can't travel all over the country at once, because there are so many hot mountains and rivers in China.

But if you live in the smallest country in the world, maybe you can travel all over the country in one day or one morning.

Today, riding a donkey introduces nine countries that can be covered in one to three days. Among them, there are China, countries like Vatican, and some small countries located on the edge of the Strait, which are small in area but beautiful in scenery.

what is condensed is the essence, and the experience is absolutely dreamy!

1. San Marino-a country on the edge of a cliff

This country built on a cliff is one of the smallest countries in the world, with only 6.75 square kilometers, which is not as big as a city in China.

The whole country is located on a hill 78 meters above sea level, and it is also in the arms of Italy. This is a typical China country. However, it was not annexed by Italy. On the contrary, it has a very friendly relationship with Italy.

So what is the charm of this magical little country, and even Italy is impressed by it?

a small country that dares to say "no" to Napoleon

San Marino is the oldest Republic in Europe and a model of a small country with independent sovereignty.

The whole country, including the capital San Marino, has nine castles (towns), each of which is called a city, and there are nine churches. China has no railways, airports and ports.

Although the country is small, the people of San Marino live a very rich life, with a per capita GDP of 3, US dollars. Not only do they have no debt, but they also have a surplus. Their leisurely life is simply the envy of neighboring countries.

an ancient small country still has its long walls. There are many rugged and narrow streets in the city. Because the urban area is located on the mountain, the terrain fluctuates greatly. From a distance, there are streets and winding roads on the street.

But when you climb along the mountain road to the "commanding heights" of this country, you will see beautiful European-style buildings at the foot of the mountain, dotted with colorful green slopes. In addition, coupled with the quiet environment, compared with the noisy Italy, it is simply a paradise.

It is rumored that when Napoleon was in power 2 years ago, he wanted to occupy San Marino. However, because the country was easy to defend but difficult to attack, he wanted to buy him off and offered to give a port to others. San Marino refused him without humility.

As a result, they were not only respected by Napoleon, but also helped by 1 tons of wheat.

No matter how small a country is, it has its own soul and dignity. Little San Marino conquered Napoleon and the world with such charm, but it has other more attractive things besides dignity.

The world-famous "Stamp Capital"

If you are a stamp collector, you will be ecstatic to get a stamp of San Marino.

As the earliest country to develop postal services, the reputation of "the stamp capital of the world" has long been famous in the world.

As many as 3 million tourists come here every year, more than 15 times the number of its citizens, mostly for stamps.

There are many kinds of stamps here, with rich themes, unique designs, colorful, generally small circulation and high collection value.

the president is very poor.

The Presidential Palace located in Freedom Square was built in 1894, located in the old site of the Great Hall of the People. There is a statue of the Statue of Liberty with a sword at the waist and a spear in the middle, which represents people's desire for peace.

Because the president's term of office is only half a year, and he can't be re-elected without salary, the president here doesn't have any enviable benefits. If you quit halfway, you will be fined, so you should be prepared to be the president here.

San Marino has no army, only volunteers who fight crime.

This prison is like a virtual prison, with a maximum sentence of 6 months. If there are rare overdue cases, they will be "sent" to Italian prisons.

This is the beautiful San Marino, which upholds the beliefs of freedom, democracy and neutrality, but is unarmed. It can still be independent and respected in Europe with many powers.

2. Liechtenstein-famous for its dentures

Liechtenstein, the only two landlocked countries in the world, is a beautiful mountainous country between Austria and Switzerland.

if you visit this country quickly, it only takes half a day. If you light a cigarette in Switzerland, cross Liechtenstein by car and arrive in Austria, the cigarette may not burn out.

Leicestershire is small, but its denture technology is the world's leading. It is said that there is a special soil here that can make the best dentures in the world, so many rich people come here to have their teeth inserted.

in addition, it also forbids skateboarding on steep slopes. Because the land area is too small, if the steep slope is not well controlled, we will arrive in Switzerland.

But Leicestershire is not famous for this, but this country can be rented!

you can rent the whole country for two nights for only $7,. By then, more than 8 policemen from all over the country will feel the king's demeanor in fairy tales under your leadership.

During the lease period, you can go to the Fuehrer's winery for wine tasting and set off fireworks by sleigh. You can also hold your lover's hand and say, "Look, this is the mountain I paved for you."

isn't it wonderful that your name will temporarily appear on a street sign or currency?

Besides, the comfort level in this country is among the highest in the world, and even the prisoners in prison don't want to leave.

It is said that once the Vice Premier worked late into the night, but when he wanted to leave, he found the door locked from the outside. Finally, a prisoner opened the door for him. The reason is that the guard gave him the key after work, and the prisoner was still very unhappy because he was awakened. Finally, he locked himself back in his cell and went back to sleep.

3. Monaco-come if you have money.

When it comes to Monaco, some people say that it is a paradise for the rich and vanity fair in Europe, while others say that it is a leisurely and happy habitat where all wishes can be realized.

is a pocket-sized country next to the Vatican, with a land area of only 1.98km, which is equivalent to a small county in China.

Its terrain is undulating, and many buildings are built along the majestic straits. Because of the great height difference, there are elevators in the railway station. You can go directly to the bay by taking the elevator a few floors down.

But this small country is one of the countries most favored by the rich in Europe, because it is not only a tax haven, but also a small country full of adventure, excitement and entertainment. As long as you have money, you are always welcome to spend a lot of money here.

The street in front of the famous casino Monte Carlo is a paradise like luxury goods. Famous brands such as Chanel and Dior have spared no expense to open flagship stores here. In the most luxurious coastal area, Hermes has a very luxurious storefront in a low-key way.

Walking on the streets of Monaco, you can hear the sound of motor from far to near from time to time, and the density of all kinds of top customized racing cars is staggering. Before you know it, you may have crossed the border and arrived in its neighboring France.

Walking in this country famous for its "luxury", you can not only enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Straits, but also buy some Monaco stamps with Monaco style that Monaco people admire most.

Her love story with the Prince of Monaco is the most touching page in Monaco's history. To this day, the old man will cry in advance and feel the princess's contribution to Monaco.

4. Vatican-the smallest country in the world

I believe many people are familiar with the Vatican because it is the smallest country in the world, but how small is it?

yes, only the pictures look so hot. It is only .44 square kilometers, which is equivalent to an Tiananmen Square. But it is the only religious country in the world, and it is also a pilgrimage site for 1 billion Catholics in the world.

This country is basically a masterpiece left over from the Middle Ages, so the whole country is included in the world cultural heritage.

St. Peter's Cathedral is the largest building in the Italian Renaissance, and even famous Italian Renaissance figures such as Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael participated in the design of these buildings.

This country has no fields, agriculture, industry and mineral resources. All the necessities of people's production and life, such as running water, electricity, food, etc. It is supplied by Italy, but it has its own currency and the Pope has his own guard.

Because of the strong religious beliefs here, millions of tourists come to this small country every year to feel their pure beliefs and purify their hearts.

5. Andorra-a tax haven

Many people may not think that this country ranked first in WeChat is a mini-inland pocket country, and both the French and the Spanish have fought against it before.

However, people became independent long ago. Andorra is now a small country sandwiched between France and Spain. Not only that, but its national defense is also the responsibility of these two countries. It is so capricious.

There is no political party or army, but a small town built on a mountain. The whole country is filled with a strong medieval style, which can be described as simple and elegant.

Andorra is very popular with tourists here, because tourism is the pillar industry of this country. Besides, this is a tax-free paradise, and the largest shopping city is its capital, which is the first choice of many European women.

in addition to buying in buy buy, Andorra also has natural ski resorts and hot springs with good quality. Competitive skiing competitions are often held here, which is a place that many skiers yearn for.

if you think that this small country has an average diet because of its small size, you are wrong. Andorra is a country where all people eat food, and there are often various food festivals here, which is a paradise for eating food.

Andorra is just a place where entertainment comes first. Here, you can have fun, be in a daze and relax wholeheartedly. Gradually, you will find that you have fallen in love with this country.

6. Luxembourg-a country with thousands of castles

Although Europe is originally a place with many castles, when you step into it, you will still be fascinated by the small Luxembourg.

Like a forgotten fairy tale world, it stands quietly between France, Germany and Belgium, constantly being upstaged by them.

However, the whole country is a museum that brings together the cultures of various ethnic groups in Western Europe.

Walking in the street, you can see Gothic architecture from Germany, Rococo architecture from Holland and post-Baroque architecture from France and Austria.

In addition, Luxembourg, its capital, is the safest city in the world. This is a free and safe place, where you will hardly meet thieves and robbers.

In Luxembourg, the best way to visit is to walk. Because the place is small and the scenic spots are concentrated, you can leisurely visit all the scenic spots without taking a car.

No matter how complicated everything in the world is, the valleys in Luxembourg are green and deep. Together with the ancient castle, they set off an isolated world, giving people the illusion of time stagnation and making people deeply intoxicated.

7. Malta-the heart of the Mediterranean

This is a fascinating country. Known by the Greeks as "a country like honey", even Beckham praised it again and again. He comes here for a holiday almost every year.

This country, which can be visited in just one day, has more than 7, years of historical sites, a world-famous natural harbor and vast rural scenery.

Besides, its travel cost is very low, even a beautiful sea view suite can spend a wonderful night for only tens of euros.

This is also the "Hollywood" of the Mediterranean, where famous film and television dramas such as Game of Thrones, The Da Vinci Code and Popeye were shot, because the scenery here is really unique and beautiful.

There are also rare blue holes, blue windows and blue lagoons in the world, which are holy places for divers. Even the Queen of England came here for their honeymoon, which is one of the most popular places in Europe.

9. Lesotho-the largest "China" in the world

Lesotho is nicknamed "Kingdom of the Air" because the lowest altitude in this country is over 1 meters. By this standard, it is the highest country in the world.

Lesotho is actually not small, with an area similar to that of Belgium, but it is not easy to enter this country because of poverty and underdeveloped transportation.

But there is a round thatched cottage in this country, which has a strange architectural style. Looking around, it is a quaint and distinctive place.

There is also the purest landscape here, because there is no trace of artificial development, showing more primitive and unique beauty.
