Swizerland Information
Switzerland is a landlocked
country in Central Europe. It has borders with
France to the west, Italy to the south, Austria
and Liechtenstein to the east and Germany to
the north.
The climate is temperate, but varies with
altitude. Switzerland has cold, cloudy, rainy/snowy
winters and cool to warm, cloudy, humid summers
with occasional showers.
Switzerland is known for its mountains (Alps
in south, Jura in northwest) but it also has
a central plateau of rolling hills, plains,
and large lakes. The highest point is Dufourspitze
at 4,634 m while Lake Maggiore is only 195
m above sea level.
Cities
-
Zurich - Switzerland's biggest
city and a major center of banking also
has a thriving nightlife.
-
Geneva - This center of
arts and culture, the second-largest city
in Switzerland, is by far the international
capital-- home to around 200 governmental
and non-governmental organisations. Geneva
was the home of John Calvin during the Reformation,
elevating the city to the rank of "Protestant
Rome," the effects of which drive Geneva
today.
-
Bern - The Swiss capital
features an amazingly well preserved old-town
with arcades along almost every street.
Great restaurants abound, as do bars and
clubs. Check out the Einstein sites as well.
-
Basel - Slightly smaller
than Geneva, Switzerland's third city is
the traveller's gateway to the Rhineland
and Alsace.
-
Lausanne - While Geneva
is busy being the international capital,
Lausanne fills the role in most of the rest
of French-speaking Switzerland. Scenery,
dining, dancing, boating and the Swiss wine-country
are the draws.
-
Lugano - Italian-speaking
Switzerland's top destination, with a gorgeous
old-town and a pretty lake. The food is
simply amazing.
-
Lucerne - Central Switzerland's
main city with direct water links to all
of the early Swiss historic sights. It's
pretty too, and though it is heavily touristed
the views and museums make putting up with
the crowds well worthwhile.
-
Zermatt - There are a lot
of mountain resorts in Switzerland, but
only one of them has the Matterhorn.
-
Solothurn - Solothurn, situated
on the river Aare and ont he foot of the
Jura mountain range is referred to as 'Switzerland's
Finest Baroque town'.
