Coming back to this blog, today i will be writing about this wonderful piece of heaven that i recently visited. SWITZERLAND. A place of amazing views and beautiful people, without any doubt Switzerland has been one of my most favorite place i had ever visited and why? Keep reading to find out :)
Switzerland is a mountainous Central European country, home to numerous lakes, villages and the high peaks of the Alps. Its cities contain medieval quarters, with landmarks like capital Bern’s Zytglogge clock tower and Lucerne’s wooden chapel bridge. The country is also known for its ski resorts and hiking trails. Banking and finance are key industries, and Swiss watches and chocolate are world renowned.
We visited two cities Bern and Interlaken.
Bern, the capital city of Switzerland, is built around a crook in the Aare River. It traces its origins back to the 12th century, with medieval architecture preserved in the Altstadt (Old Town). The Swiss Parliament and diplomats meet in the Neo-Renaissance Bundeshaus (Federal Palace). The Französische Kirche (French Church) and the nearby medieval tower known as the Zytglogge both date to the 13th century. Bern also has Einstein's first family home. Now a museum, its a tiny place full of knowledge.
Interlaken is a traditional resort town in the mountainous Bernese Oberland region of central Switzerland. Built on a narrow stretch of valley, between the emerald-colored waters of Lake Thun and Lake Brienz, it has old timber houses and parkland on either side of the Aare River. Its surrounding mountains, with dense forests, alpine meadows and glaciers, has numerous hiking and skiing trails.
Three days in these two cities were the best days of my life. Loved their transport systems, easily accessible and tourist friendly. I have lived in UK and their transport system is considered the best but i can say that Switzerland is pretty close too.
Just a tip: Do use Tripadvisor before planning a trip to any part of the world. Best app ever!
