Switzerland

If you like sightseeing, Switzerland is the perfect choice. First of all, because you will find there many perfectly preserved monuments from various historical periods. From medieval castles (eg. Vaud on Lake Geneva) to slightly more contemporary structures, to modern architecture. You will be able to admire the latter in particular in Geneva . A huge number of interesting museums are waiting for you in Basel (there are about 40!). It is also worth visiting Bern , picturesquely situated on the Aare River, or Lausanne - the only Swiss city with a metro line.

Switzerland is unlikely to be a good destination for partygoers. Mainly because the Swiss themselves are not known for any special love for boisterous games. Yes, in most large cities you will find pubs or atmospheric bars. However, if you want to dance and really go crazy, go straight to Zurich . This is where the best and biggest clubs all over the country operate. In winter, a lot is also happening in the most popular ski resorts in Switzerland, such as Davos or Zermatt.

Switzerland is primarily the Alps . Their jagged peaks inspire both admiration and terror. However, this country is associated not only with mountains. Switzerland is also lakes . Lake Geneva, Constance, Zurich and Maggiore are among the largest. Staying in water climates, in Switzerland you will also find one of the most powerful waterfalls in Europe, which is located next to the town of Shaffhausen.

I must admit that Switzerland is a dream destination for all skiers and snowboarders. First of all, because the local ski resorts offer the highest world standard. So here you can count on a modern network of lifts and perfectly prepared slopes. Interlaken is one of the most picturesquely situated Swiss winter resorts with 200 km of slopes. The famous St. Moritz also deserves attention. There you will find 350 km of ski slopes, located within three different glaciers. For skiing / snowboarding, it is also worth visiting Zermatt , located in the shadow of the Matterhorn.

And although it would seem that most places in Switzerland are crowded with tourists, there are several cities or towns where foreign visitors do not come too crowds. If you are looking for peace and quiet, be sure to visit Spiez , which is located on Lake Thum. Numerous vineyards, a castle and a historic church create an idyllic setting. It is also worth visiting Sankt Gallen . There is a library in the abbey in which 170,000 documents are kept. Experience a typical Italian Mediterranean atmosphere when visiting Lugano , and one of the largest Swiss castles can be found in Gruyeres .
