Switzerland may be neutral but it's far from flavourless. The fusion of German, French and Italian ingredients has formed a robust national culture, and the country's alpine landscapes have enough zing to reinvigorate the most jaded traveller. Goethe summed up Switzerland succinctly as a combination of 'the colossal and the well-ordered'. You can be sure that your trains and letters will be on time. The tidy, just-so precision of Swiss towns is tempered by the lofty splendour of the landscapes that surround them.

Our Swiss adventures have continued with some more exploration of beautiful Lucerne, including a very misty morning cruise of the lake...a pleasant way to spend an hour or so but not a lot to see through the hazy skies. The afternoon had us all aboard ... Read more >

At the end of a long, hot day we went below ground into an ancient underground city. There are many of these hiding out cities. This one is over 4km, 8 floors down, could hole 3000 people with their food and animals for a year. They have been used for over 3000 years to hide from invaders. After all this is the Silk Road!: by sailor1girl, Views[180]
