Switzerland - the Jungfrau area especially - is my idea of heaven on earth. Having visited several times we have enjoyed this beautiful country in all seasons. Geographically speaking, Switzerland is a tiny country, you can drive from Geneva to Zurich in around four hours. The scenery is magnificent and we have great memories of sitting on roadside benches in the mountains simply listening to cowbells and taking in the view.
What Switzerland lacks in size it makes up for in Alpine grandeur and variety with its German, French and Italian speaking cantons. Of course, while skiing in Switzerland is superb as are the high quality chocolate and watches Switzerland has many quaint villages. There is plenty to keep you busy in Switzerland, cosmopolitan Zurich, lakeside gems like Geneva and Lucerne and nightlife in Lausanne.
