http://dantrivn.biz/choang-voi-hinh-anh-ngoc-trinh-hon-ngau-nghien-khac-tiep.htmlI live with her friend in a city close to the French-Swiss border. Times before moving to France, she advised me to stay a few days and her husband were driving through Switzerland carrying the game.
"It is a country worth living in the world," she said briefly that you only. But due to my schedule to go in groups and not go backpacking, I had an appointment with suggestions error charm of her husband.
No doubt just two years later, I and a group of journalists followed the company Travel Thien Thanh (Blue Sky Travel) Switzerland to visit the official invitation of the Tourism Authority of this country.
And what a wonderful country with a small area (41.285km2, only about 1 / 8 Vietnam) started.
Flight of the country's largest airline Lufthansa must undergo two stages transit (Bangkok and Frankfurt) new to Zurich, the city's second-largest economy Switzerland. And throughout the journey left leg to the next four cities on our soil Switzerland entirely by train with the tag "Swiss Pass" extremely convenient, plus it can be used to take the bus, tram or boats on the river to the city throughout Switzerland without worrying story book tickets in advance.
Engelberg - Paradise Town & four season mountain snow
from Zurich airport, train connecting flights to the city immediately Lurcene then continue to change to another train to Engelberg. The total length of about 90 km and go right 2 hours. In a country that produced the world's largest clock, the schedule required almost absolute precision!
So we've gone through three stages changing flight and two ships, a total loss of about 20 hours. However, when it comes out from the train door, a small village situated between four acres of surface mount this up how dispel fatigue.
Last summer sunshine makes the scene even more impressive. At the top of the mountain is snow white, glowing bright in the sun, in the valley is a small village with villas built neat, orderly. All are covered by the blue color of the grass, pine forest.
Tobias Matter, director of Titlis Rotair lead business delegation to visit a round town, starting from a peaceful country lane but brilliant by the pot planting flowers in the balcony or port of the villa and leads to the Benedictine monastery area, highlighted by Baroque architecture of the chapel.Behind the monastery there is a cheese factory, famous specialty of this region.

This small town knows how to work as tourist attraction in the region's population is only 4,000 people, but to welcome over 800,000 visitors to the tourist and resort every year, if visitor numbers over and back in the day it was much larger. Travel services they really professional and perfect, that we must take advantage of every moment to enjoy all these gadgets here.
The heart of Engelberg Titlis is the snowy mountain at an altitude of more than 3.200m. The top of the mountain was first conquered in 1744, Father Abbot Plazidus once wrote that: "Mountain Titlis very high and very scary."

Engelberg travel with both summer and winter. If the winter, this is paradise for tourists ski countries in the eurozone, the summer is a place for tourists to Asia, especially China, Indonesia, India to explore here.
The first night, We stay in a hotel halfway up the mountain, at an altitude of about 1.800m. Above is the top of Titlis white tops, below the village of Engelberg fit in the green valley. A hail storm prevented afternoon trips around the hotel, in return, we sat in a restaurant drinking beer warm wood, eating cheese and chat with the locals hospitable.
8 pm , the sky was bright sunshine even have hidden behind the mountains. After dinner with typical Swiss cuisine, we walk around and rest on early preparation for the journey to conquer the peak Titlis in the next day.
From the hotel, two-stage cable car takes more away up to top of Titlis. Landscape as high as majestic. Despite the rather harsh sun, white snow still covered in many places of the mountains and guests are spoiled for playing with snow.
In Titlis not only the game on snow or ice caving eternal but also more games thrills for the adventurous guy like parasailing, kayaking in the lake, ice climbing, skateboarding. In the afternoon, when turned down town Engelberg, I and two fellow undergo conquest 6 levels from easy to difficult game Rope Park (wiring in the park).Tarzan was first made, I understand how the feeling of joy when on the cliff above the high wire, rope swinging from trees or other plants slip through wires down from a height of nearly 20 meters.
Activities full capacity for a day of entertainment in Engelberg Titlis and I experienced a good night's sleep to continue the journey the next day
Lucerne - the romantic city on Lake
Lucerne city is perhaps the most characteristic of Switzerland because it is the epitome of this country. Small city located on Lake Lucerne vast and surrounded by mountains. Although only a small area of the city has a population of only 80,000 people, Lucerne is considered as one of the economic centers of Switzerland, thanks to tourism and manufacturing watches.
At the center of the city, Lucerne features a water tower and a unique bridge Chapel. Both buildings were built heritage from the 13th century, is seen as a symbol to "recognize" the city on the postcards.
Since the Middle Ages, Lucerne was named the city's bridges and Chapel's most beautiful bridges. The fire in 1993 almost completely destroyed the bridge, including the paintings exhibited in it, but only a short time later, in 1994, this wooden bridge was restored the status quo. Walking on the bridge Chapel, watch the sequence of blooming flowers all year round red or white male swan swimming calmly under the lake gives me an indescribable feeling of peace and do not want to leave the foot.
One of the participants Other objects of the monument Lurcene "Lion dying" world famous Danish sculptor - Thorwaldsen, carved to commemorate the Swiss mercenaries were killed while performing duties Tuleries protect the king of France in 1792.
A friend of the group, which is the knowledge of the history and culture of Europe tells us more interesting stories of bravery, loyalty and identity estimates of Swiss mercenaries make sense of the statue even more lively and interesting. American writer Mark Twain to visit here once famously wrote about this statue: "A rock feel sadness and sorrow of the world."
With a relatively long history, Lucerne is also known for the old town with murals centuries, as a outdoor museum with interesting anecdotes.

The system is also a museum in the pride of the city. Even the central station is Museum of Art with paintings worth millions of Picasso, Erni to Wagner. But perhaps the most interesting is the Museum of Transport is located approximately 5km from the city center. The name of museum sounds dry, but set foot inside, I could not resist exploring his footsteps, though I love the people that are not techniques or technologies. In this exciting tour, I was invited to try the feeling of flying the plane primitive 19th century.
For a country with a complex terrain, especially in the rugged mountains APLS but the Swiss themselves proud conquer all streets, though most complicated to go to every corner of their country.Museum of Transport shows the development as well as the transport of Switzerland. Plus exhibits intelligent, attractive that the number of visitors to the museum the largest of the 40 museums around the country.
After a day exploring the city, legs tired, we returned to the hotel to Using outdoor buffet. The hotel is located in the suburbs far from the city center and to travel by ship. From the deck, my eye sight extends away from the city or the beautiful villas on the lake slowly glide. Occasionally, a boat parked in close proximity to beaches, few children who would come to swim in the cool blue water. To the hotel, it was dark and cold, if not, um I jumped into the lake to swim for delight.

Just tired legs for walking, moderate climb up high makes everyone exhausted, but the indigenous people want to create a surprisingly interesting. When you go to a restaurant high above, looking down face, the old town with red roofs and brown river Aare flows through the city fits in your eye. A beauty hard to resist.
"This is the most beautiful place we've ever seen!" the German poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, wrote in a letter to his friend, Charlotte von Stein, Goethe save time Bern back in 1779. I suspect that Goethe exclamations like when viewed from Bern Rose Garden!

The final destination of the journey to discover Switzerland's border city of Basel. I know thanks to the Basel watch fair world's largest (Baselworld) is held annually in March and once in search of information for travelers backpacking in Europe, known Basel second place in 10 cities small (population less than 250,000) in the most livable continent.
Upon arriving in Basel, indeed, there is not a list voted wrong. Even at the Hilton Hotel in downtown Basel, we are getting a thick booklet of 10 small book introduction to this unique location for travelers, from architecture and art to culinary travel experience.
Basel is nestled in the heart of Europe, close to the border with France and Germany so despite being a small town, but with many characteristics of a cosmopolitan city, multicultural, multilingual and very lively not unmistakable.

The city is located at the first bend and downstream of the river Rhine flows through many countries. Visitors can cross the city by two bridges on the river or friends.
Though very convenient means to move, but how to discover the most ideal Basel is still walking. These small towns, winding road in the alley leads us to interesting places and incredibly cute. If tired legs, Market Square and Town Hall Square can be stopped at any catchment public taps to drink.
Two places not to be missed is the Cathedral unique in the Rhine river with the red sandstone walls, colorful roof tiles and features twin towers majestically. The second location is the Market Square and Town Hall Square, where you have to admire the architecture of the town hall has a walk watching the markets of fresh vegetables, fruit and flowers are sold out, a culture interesting tradition here.

Go down the street, sometimes I encounter a outdoor cinema with large screens or panels advertising exhibitions of contemporary artists in the museum area.The tour guide said that older people can not live without Basel art!Perhaps due to the cross-cultural and geographical characteristics of it.
And I was able to think of an interesting association - Basel, the city heard the rooster crowed three countries!
