Touring Switzerland
"The land of legendary tales and tall mountain peaks, Switzerland is Europe's Shangri-La." - Booklist Little Switzerland is big! A breeding ground for great monuments: The Geneva Conventions, The International Red Cross, The International Olympic Committee, and Dada. It is the home of the music box and the world's futuristic time-pieces. It's the land of oversized cowbells and mammoth wheels of Gruyere cheese. A land of great cities, many with medieval Old Towns, cathedral spires, half-timbered houses, and frescoes on the facades of ancient buildings. It's the city of Montreux which celebrates jazz in the Land of the Yodel. It's a train's dizzy ascent up the Jungfrau. It is the Matterhorn. It is St. Moritz and Zermatt and Interlaken hosting Kings of Industry and Queens of Cinema. Skiing in minks and golfing in the snow. Switzerland is where the wealth of nations goes for safekeeping. It's all here, Geneva, Lake Geneva, Bern, Basel, Appenzell, St. Moritz, Lugano/Lucarno, Zermatt, Interlaken, Lucerne, and Zurich.
