Switzerland

We suggest to visit this one of the richest country in the world, known for its military and political neutrality, high economic level and Zurich banks.Country is surrounded by Italy, France, German, Austria and Liechtenstein. It means here are crossroads of several major European cultures, that’s why crossing the country the language can change two or three, or even four times (German to French, Austrian, Romansch or Italian). Interesting there are some kind of “language borders”: in particular region one of language is not just spoken, but has priority at school, in press and administration.The visit card of Switzerland is its nature beauty. Alps cover two third of  whole state territory, part of it coated with ice and snowfields. In addition, there are various active sport pastime: mountaineering, climbing, snowboard sport or skiing.Towns of Switzerland characterize their cleanness and trim.

What to bring home? This Alps nation is famous for its luscious chocolate and marzipan confections,  high quality clocks and fine cheese. Seek out local producers and take your pick of hard and soft cheeses and schnapps. Look out for wooden toys and delectable baby and children's clothes. Go for watches and jewellery, and hunt for the perfect Swiss army knife.

Outright you can indulge national specialities, such as cheese fondue and raclette, nut croissants (Nüss Gipfeli). The tasty one is Zürigschnätzlets. It is veal and mushrooms in cream sauce served with Rösti (potato cakes). Also try the local offene Weine (draught wine) and at harvest time drink the popular Sauser (unfermented wine).
