Little Europe: Five Micro-Countries

Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2008 | Don't blink as we blitz through Europe's tiniest countries: Vatican City, the planet's smallest country, boasts the its biggest church. The fairy-tale princedom of Monaco lures high rollers with its fancy casino and glamorous views. Italy's last independent hill town, San Marino, still looks formidable, as does the castle-guarded principality of Liechtenstein. And amid the rugged beauty of the Pyrenees, tiny Andorra draws shoppers and hikers alike. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope

Best regards to San Marino from Croatia. Saint Marino/ Sveti Marin was born in Croatia and he founded the beautiful country the Sanmarinese call home. We love you






Good work Rick. Aldo, I think you missed Luxembourg...

That episode may have come out in 2008, but was the Vatican segment from 2000, San Marino from 2006, and the other two (Andorra and Liechtenstein) from 2008? I know the Monaco segment came from 2004 - most likely from a 2004 episode involving Nice and the French Riviera.

I've been to Andorra and whilsg the capital put me off at first, the countryside is breath taking. Beautiful part of the world

[maccabees]

Love this but you forgot Malta, it's smaller than Andorra!

[aryanscience]

Great video, been to all of these as well! How about a video on European quirks such as Campione d'Italia, Llivia, Gibraltar, Baarle-Nassau (& Baarle-Hertog), Busingen am Hochrhein and if you want to push things you could include Ceuta & Melilla (although they are technically in Africa)..

4:06 why would you mail something across the street just walk over there you already got half way by going to the mailbox 🤷‍♀️

These small countries look incredibly beautiful like places in fairy tales. Andoraa sounds strange as if its a part of some fantasy novel,

I noticed an interesting section of video with a very interesting map of comparison about these countries and the description about them, from about 20 minutes and 10 seconds to 20 minutes and 40 seconds. 2020-January-18th 1:07
