“A clean house, is a clean mind,” Swiss proverb.
Resting in southwest Europe, Switzerland is home to one of nature’s most famous wonders: The Swiss Alps, which bring monthly tens of thousands wide eyes from around the world to experience breathtaking awe. Spectacular beauty contained in the country’s top rank waterfall Staubbach, which sits above a scenic village in the Bernese Oberland; and the Reichenbach Falls, that is famous for it is the place where Sherlock Holmes fell to his ‘death’. And before you leave, one could participate in a downhill a cheese rolling contest, which dates back to 1826 in England. It is a race down hill, where a roll of cheese is released and contestants race (windup tumbling forward at speeds up to 70 miles per hour. Yeah, 70 mph) where their bride or groom awaits.
VALLEY OF 72 WATERFALLS
Lauterbrunnen, surely, is on every hiker’s wish list. 72…72…72 waterfalls. The tiny town, that sits in a valley in the Swiss Alps, is a town of barely 2,400. Having problems visualizing the natures generous footprint, just replay the iconic scene from the classic film The Sound of Music runs parallel to that famous outdoor scene etched in film history; throw some giant waterfalls shewing mist onto the village edge, as the water freefalls. Yeah, you readers got it. Oh yeah.
A OPEN-AIR BAR IN ZURICH
If puzzled on the meaning open-air bar, it means the bar closes when it rains. Many of the lakes and rivers turn into bars in the evenings.
