歐洲袖珍小國列支敦士登近期面向私人推出一個整國出租計劃，承租的客戶可享受個性化定制的路標和臨時貨幣等服務，每晚租金七萬美元，可提供150人的食宿。另外，客戶還可以得到蠟制個人徽號，甚至中世紀式巡游表演等高貴服務，不過這些項目都需要額外收費。據悉，客戶在踏上列支敦士登國土后，就會獲安排到國會大樓內接收象征性的“國家鑰匙”，之后可到國家元首漢斯?亞當二世親王的酒莊品嘗葡萄酒，或去坐平底雪橇、放煙花或坐馬車游覽首都瓦杜茲。

列支敦士登公國是位于奧地利和瑞士之間的阿爾卑斯山小國，是歐洲第四小的國家，人口只有35000。列支敦士登奉行君主立憲制，列支敦士登一向以“避稅天堂”及出口假牙、紡織品著稱。

Vaduz castle in Liechtenstein

Executives with cash to burn traditionally hire luxury yachts, secluded villas or expensive hotel suites to impress clients. Now they can take corporate hospitality to a new level by hiring an entire country, albeit a small one.

The principality of Liechtenstein has decided to make itself available to private clients, from $70,000 (￡43,000) a night, complete with customised street signs and temporary currency. It's a big step for the country best known for its tax-haven status and exporting false teeth: last year Snoop Dogg, pictured, tried to hire it to use in a music video, but received a stern refusal from authorities.

Since then they have woken up to the marketing opportunities of their mountainous landscape. The price tag includes accommodation for 150 people, although the 35,000 inhabitants would remain. Any personal touches, such as an individual logo created out of candle wax or a customised medieval procession, come at an extra, undisclosed cost.

Upon arrival in Liechtenstein, visitors would be presented with the symbolic key to the state, followed by wine tasting at the estate of the head of state, Prince Hans-Adam II. Other options include tobogganing, fireworks and horse-drawn carriage rides through the capital Vaduz.

Visitors could also try cross-country skiing, snowboarding and snowshoe hiking to explore the picturesque landscape.

Despite all these attractions, Liechtenstein has yet to be rented out – although a couple recently came close to hiring it for their wedding until the marriage was called off.

The rental scheme is offered by Liechtenstein-based marketing firm Rent a Village by Xnet and hiring company Airbnb, which also has 10 European villages on its books. So, if hiring an entire country is too extravagant or overwhelming, there is always the option of renting a village in Austria or Switzerland for a mere $60,000 a night.
