If travel Switzerland,
climbing up its
incredibly beautiful mountains and tasting its famous chocolate have
always been your cherished dream, you should learn some details about
this country. Planning to
get to Switzerland and to visit its best places
remember that universal English can be insufficient here - better try
to learn several French expressions in deference to the locals. Booking
a room in a hotel
be
sure that, whether it is fashionable or the cheapest one, the service
will be superb, as Switzerland is famous for its hospitality.
Most tourists begin their tour around Switzerland with Zurich and Geneva which have modern
international airports and concentrate a great number of sightseeings
and works of art.
It is very convenient to start from Zurich airport, taking a direct
train to the downtown or any other destination around Switzerland. If
you prefer to use a taxi, take into consideration that taxis are
utterly expensive in Switzerland. These are tourists who hire taxis
more often - locals prefer public transport.
With the help of a guide book or a travel agency you will know where
to
go and when, what places of interest to visit, what to eat
and how much
it is in Switzerland and many others important things. The most popular
destination are Zurich; Geneva, the most cosmopolite city of the world,
proud of its famous fountain and flower clock; Bern,
known for its
incredible shopping and a rich collection of Modern art; St. Moritz and
its world-known curative waters; Luzern
where the International Music Festival is held every summer; Lausanne
and Basel with their museums of art and ancient cathedrals. Hikers will
choose Grindelwald in the Alps, and nature-lovers should visit
Montreaux - the celebrated resort on Lac Leman. Thanks to its mild
microclimate, Montreaux has luxuriant vegetation and is a garden spot
in the middle of majestic mountains.
In general, each part of Switzerland is worth seeing and exploring.
Whatever destination you choose - it is inevitable that the tour around
the country impress you much.
