Discover Switzerland this Holiday Season

Two years ago I had written a series of articles over the best destinations a family or a couple could go to and Switzerland came on top of the list. It was no mere co-incidence. Some of the many reasons why it pipped destinations like Italy, France, Mauritius e.t.c. were because it is an all-weather destination, it has a superb ambience (thanks to the Swiss Alps), is serene, has the ability to provide you an out of the world experience, security is not an issue here, the people are broad-minded and it makes your holiday look like a fairy tale.

According to me the opulence and grandeur of a destination cannot be measured by the number of articles which have been written over it but by observing whether those articles have been able to encapsulate, to the fullest, the charm of that destination.. And the answer (in the case of Switzerland) is No..

No matter how much I or any other author writes about Switzerland there will always be something new for you to discover there. And it is this aspect which makes visiting Switzerland an out-of-the-world experience.

In Switzerland the main places which are recommended to tourists and travelers amongst the many options are Lake Geneva, St Moritz, Mürren, Arosa, Interlaken, Zurich, Zermatt e.t.c. Folks in Switzerland Tourism use the sub-heading 'Get Natural' which aptly explains their country and its incredible natural beauty. Newly-wed couples considering a Switzerland Honeymoon should look no further as Swiss Summers are one of the best times to explore the country and feel the real magic of classical Switzerland

Contrary to the popular perception, Switzerland is not that expensive a place to visit and if you scour the internet you would come across economical packages which wouldn't burn a hole into your pocket. One of the leading travel sites 'Make My Trip' is organising a contest and they are giving away a Free Swiss Trip as a prize. So do participate because if you get lucky you are in for the time of your life !
