by Switzerland is a country full of charm and history, with many fascinating attractions. Here are five things to see in Switzerland that should not be missed.
Jungfrau
Jungfrau is a famous mountain in Switzerland, known as the “top of Europe”. Located 20 or 30 kilometers south of Interlaken, Switzerland, and southeast of Bern, it is also translated as Jonfrau. It is one of the highest peaks in the Alps, 4158 meters above sea level, 18 kilometers across, like a girl, wearing long hair, white snow, quietly lying between the white clouds. The top of the mountain is covered with snow and ice all year round, while the grass below is beautiful and beautiful, and it is a famous tourist and outdoor sports resort in Europe. The area was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2001.
The Capel Covered Bridge
The Capel Covered Bridge, also known as the Church Bridge, is a symbol of Lucerne, built in 1333, and is the oldest covered wooden bridge in Europe. The eyebrows of the bridge are painted with 120 paintings of religious history, and along the way you can also enjoy paintings depicting the scenes of the Black Death epidemic.
The bridge was destroyed by a fire on August 17, 1993, leaving only the water tower intact, and although it has been completely restored, the old and new marks are still legible, and the pictures on the beams are not as impressive as they were then. Stroll here at dusk, you can still enjoy a romantic sense of Lucerne’s medieval feelings. Today, the Capel Bridge is still an indispensable feature on Lucerne postcards.
Ridgebirge
Known as the Queen of Mountains, Mount Regis is also known as the Alpine Lookout. At the top of the mountain, you can enjoy a 360-degree view of the Swiss Alps, overlooking the idyllic scenery below, as many as 13 lakes, and even look out to France and Germany. It is a great place to watch the sunrise and sunset, and in winter, you can often see the breathtaking sea of clouds.
As a world-class tourist destination, the Mount Regis itself is one of the most popular hiking destinations for Swiss locals. In recent years, it has attracted a large number of foreign tourists competing to punch the card, so the scenic spot has also set up a number of convenient and service facilities for tourists.
Lake Lucerne
Lake Lucerne, also known as Lake Lucerne and Lake of the Four Forest Cantons, is the fourth largest lake in Switzerland and the first lake entirely within the territory of Switzerland. The shoreline of Lake Lucerne twists and turns, creating many branches that connect the city of Lucerne to the surrounding mountains. The Reuss River flows from Fluelen into the lake and from Lucerne.
Lake Lucerne is a very popular tourist destination for both Swiss and foreign tourists, and there are many hotels and resorts on the lake. The Rutli grassland on the southeastern shore of Lake Lucerne was an alliance of the Swiss Confederation in 1287. To mark the 700th anniversary of Switzerland’s founding, the government has created a commemorative walking trail on the shores of Lake Lucerne. The route runs 30 kilometers from Lutley Meadow, known as the birthplace of Switzerland, to Brunnen on the other side.
Schilang Peak
Schilthorn is a mountain in the Bernese Alps in central Switzerland at 2,970 meters above sea level. It is surrounded by famous peaks such as Jungfrau and Titlis, and visitors can take the cable car to the top, where they can enjoy the magnificent views of 200 peaks. At the top of the mountain, there is an observation deck and a full-view rotating restaurant Piz Gloria, which appeared in several scenes in the James Bond movie “On Her Majesty’s Secret Order”, making Xuelang Peak famous in the world. An exhibition at the top of the hill shows what 007 left behind.
