Canton of Berne Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Jungfrau Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
I see trees of green ♪
Beautiful alpine village nestled in the mountains with an amazing view of the Jungfrau valley and Lauterbrunnen down below. Taking the train up to Wengen will guarantee you a lovely view of Lauterbrunnen.
The village has shops, attractions and amenities within walking distance. Though, if you do decide to get a resort/hotel further up, be sure to ask for shuttle cars, the upwards slopes are no joke.
Our hotel had a lovely view of the cable car rides up to Männlichen, the street below and at night- if you’re willing to stand in the 14 degrees cold (even in summer) you can get a good picture of the night sky!
Of course, we couldn’t stay in Wengen without visiting Männlichen and her famous Royal Walk- a short hike of 1.7km, with elevations up to 80-120m up/down, grants you a truly breathtaking panoramic view. ((the gravel paths can be a bit slippery so be careful on the way down))
The trail from Männlichen to Kleine Scheidegg was an overall downhill walk with a view of Grindelwald down below and the snow capped mountains. But before you embark on this trail be sure to either get something to eat or drink (and the WC of course) at Männlichen as it is quite a long walk (about 4.7km). Near the midpoint you can see Eiger! A truly memorable walk with amazing scenery of the town below and mountains all around us.
Truly a scenic paradise with plenty of activities to do, whether you prefer to simply enjoy the views or try out some of their more thrilling activities. It was my first time visiting Switzerland but certainly won’t be the last!#switzerland #summervacation #nature #alps

Jungfrau | Top of Europe !!!! 🇨🇭
How to get there: There are 2 ways to go up Jungfrau: 1) By the Cable Car (Eiger Express) or 2) By train. We went up by the eiger express (from Grindelswald, interchanging at Terminal), and we came down by train.
Before we went up, we contemplated of joining a tour but given we have done a fair share of research, I ended up going by ourselves.
There are several viewing sites, which ofc include Jungfrau itself, ice palace, exhibition of history of the site construction of Jungfrau, and Lindlt chocolate museum.
It was negative 18 degree celsius on Jungfrau!!! So for those who cannot handle the cold, don’t visit during the winter 😂😂😂
Despite the weather condition was not ideal (no blue sky😣) but i guess it is as expected because we went during the winter ❄️)
Pro tip: I would recommend purchasing the swiss pass as you get discount for the jungfrau ticket and free transport within Switzerland!!

Grindelwald: A crime if you miss it!
Get here by train! We came via Basel and just enjoyed the scenic views from the huge train windows. Lake, villages, mountains, you won’t want to close your eyes!
Coming here in early autumn, we escaped the crowds and could explore First, Eiger, and Jungfraujoch with ease and little wait time. The mountains are magnificent all thru the year! The colours of the landscape will change and hiking to the Balchapsee is an experience in itself. Discovering WCs in the middle of nowhere, up
in the mountains, complete with toilet tissue is something only the Swiss can guarantee!
There are many hotels in this little village and all are within walking distance of the train station. We stayed at the Eiger Aparthotel as we wanted to prepare our own meals to save cost. Bookings come with daily afternoon tea and the variety of cakes, teas and coffees were an absolute treat!
There are many cafes around for fondue and all sorts of local delights. We opted to explore the two supermarkets for raw ingredients and cooked up our own dinners at a fraction of the cost of eating out. Do check out the different yogurt flavours, types of cheese, and cured meats too!
As it is a tourist destination, you can get souvenirs and major brands here. There is a post office (to send postcards) and some banks if you need forex.
My #2023travelwish is to drop by this beautiful place again in the SUMMER and take in the wonders of creation ❤️

Interlaken, charming village in Switzerland!
#2023travelwish
My most unforgettable vacation destination was Interlaken; a charming village beneath of Jungfrau, Switzerland. Surrounded by mountains and nature beauty, sits between the emerald-coloured waters of Lake Thun and Lake Brienz, it has old timber houses and parkland on either side of the Aare River, truly a beatiful and picturesque holiday destination.
Interlaken is also a hotspot for paragliding, hiking and sightseers alike, and the gateway to exploring the Jungfrau region.
My 2023 dream destination would be Kyoto, Japan for stunning Autumn leaves.🍁

Town of Spiez Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Spiez, a small town in Switzerland, is a paradise on earth by Lake Thun!
In Switzerland, the most typical settlements are in the lush Alps and small towns by the blue lakes, such as Spiez on Lake Thun. Once you arrive in this historic town with charming lake and mountain views, you'll understand why so many people want to live in Switzerland.
Spiez is close to Interlaken and Bern, well-known travel destinations in Switzerland. It takes just over 10 to 20 minutes by train from Interlaken. Swiss trains are very punctual, almost to the minute. Spiez train station is built on a high ground by Lake Thun, and the small platform outside the train is the best place to overlook Spiez.
Follow the path all the way down, and you will reach the center of Spiez. The town is nestled against the mountains and by the water, with fresh air. There is also a small pasture with lush green grass in the town, where a group of goats are leisurely grazing.
The most conspicuous landmark building in Spiez is the Spiez Castle, which was built in 1200 (during the Southern Song Dynasty in China) and has a history of over 800 years. The castle was originally the residence of the Bernese governor, close to Lake Thun with unbeatable views. Now it has been converted into a small museum. Interestingly, this castle was never intended for defense against enemies, but was simply the residence of the local governor, so there are no high walls around it. Instead, a circle of grapes has been planted. There is also a wine cellar in the castle, and there are many vineyards on the slopes around the town, suggesting that this place also produces fine wines.
Looking down from Spiez Castle, you can see a tranquil lake and mountain view - this is a typical Swiss town scenery, quiet, peaceful, beautiful, and time is peaceful. No wonder so many people want to move here!
Spiez is located on the shore of Lake Thun, the 'left eye of God'. There are many sailboats and speedboats docked at the town's pier. Spiez represents the affluent lifestyle of the Swiss, with every household having flowers, grass, a small courtyard, and a yacht.
The lakeside is full of lush grass and shaded trees, and it's a pleasure to take a leisurely walk here.
The residents of Spiez also live a leisurely and comfortable life. We ran into a father and son who got up early and their gentle dog. The little boy has blond hair and a dazed expression, and his father takes him for a walk in the stroller.
In Spiez, every shot is a beautiful view. We went there in the early morning, just after a rain had stopped. The air was moist and fresh, the surroundings were quiet, the lake was gentle, and this is what paradise on earth must be like.
Discover amazing Autumn falls in Spiez
#fallishere
Spiez is picturesquely situated on Lake Thun. The Castle of Spiez is highlight of the place also the garden. the city view from viewpoint and lakes are amazing in Autumn leaves fall. the whole city is surrounding by the trees.
we were amaze by the city and we wish to stay longer in the peaceful and lovely city.
we hope we can spend more time in this city as we are joining a day tour so we couldn’t spend a night here .
will definitely visiting here again and highly recommended 👍🏻

you must go to the Swiss Alps. It is the eternal Holy Grail in the hearts of everyone who has been there.
Switzerland 🇨🇭 is not actually the first choice for most Chinese tourists visiting Europe, but it is definitely the eternal holy grail in the hearts of everyone who has been there, a place that they secretly long to revisit two, three, four, or even five times.
Day 1️⃣: Lucerne
The first stop, Lucerne, also known as "Luzern", is the "city of light" in the hearts of the Swiss people. Nestled in the embrace of the mountains and by the clear lake, this small medieval town exudes warmth and passion.
Day 2️⃣: Interlaken
Interlaken is located between the "Eye of God" Lake Thun and Lake Brienz. The distant Jungfrau, Schilthorn, and Mönch peaks stand silently, watching over each other for countless years.
To visit the Jungfrau Peak, the best way is to take the mountain train. The train usually departs from Interlaken and there are two routes to choose from. One is Interlaken-Grindelwald-Kleine Scheidegg-Jungfrau, and the other is Interlaken-Lauterbrunnen-Wengen-Kleine Scheidegg-Jungfrau.
Day 3️⃣: Interlaken
Schwyz is a famous Swiss resort and yacht center, and it takes only about 20 minutes by train from Interlaken to Schwyz.
Day 4️⃣: Montreux
Visit the town of Montreux and fully experience the gentle beauty of the lakeside town.
Day 5️⃣: Zermatt
Although the beauty of the Maiden's Peak is remarkable, the honor of being the most famous mountain peak in the Alps belongs to the Matterhorn, and the town of Zermatt at its foot is also one of the most famous mountain towns in Europe.
Day 6️⃣: Zermatt
By taking a train in Zermatt, you can reach the highest observation deck in Europe at 3883 meters, the Gornergrat summit, and admire the perfect triangular shape of the Matterhorn at the closest distance.
Day 7️⃣: Löylykbäd
Switzerland also has amazing mineral hot springs, which are an experience not to be missed. The small town of Leukerbad, located at an altitude of over 1400 meters, has a total of 22 outdoor and indoor hot spring pools, some of which are already at an altitude of around 2,000 meters.
Day 8️⃣: Zurich
On the last day, take a walk in the city center of Zurich, visit the Swiss museums and stroll along the world's most expensive street - Bahnhofstrasse in Zurich.
The small town of Spiez, Switzerland: met in the rainy morning
Early in the morning, take a train from Interlaken to Bern, and stop at the town of Spiez on the way. The Spiez train station is located on the top of the mountain with a great view. You can overlook the whole town as soon as you get off the train.
Spiez is located more than 30 kilometers southeast of the Bernese Highlands in Switzerland, on the shore of a bay on the south bank of Lake Thun, at an altitude of 628 meters, belonging to the Bernese Plateau. Here, the water is as clear as a mirror, surrounded by snow-capped peaks, and the air is fresh. It is a famous health and water sports resort in Switzerland. The main body of the town is backed by the continuous Alps, and it has a large area of vineyards. The lake surface, as clear as a jade, is filled with sailboats and yachts of all sizes. On clear days, you can even see the reflection of distant snow-capped mountains.
The town is built along the mountain slope and is a lively residential town. We spent two hours wandering around the town, and then had a cup of coffee with the locals on a rainy morning while having breakfast to warm ourselves up.
📝Attention tips:
Spiez train station is located at the highest point of the entire town. If you are not staying in the town and have luggage with you, please be sure to store your luggage before going down to play.

MURREN - The most beautiful village in Swiss!
Murren is a car free alpine village in Switzerland - the only way to access Murren village is by cable car and train.
The village lies at about 1650m above sea level, which offering amazing panoramic view.
We visited the village during winter season and apparently it is the season where Murren becomes busy with tourists and/or ski lovers.
During your visit to Murren, you can also pay a visit to the Mt Schilthorn by cable car if you are a fan of 007 James Bond.

Breathtaking Scenic Town Of Lauterbrunnen
One town that you have to visit is the town of Lauterbrunnen simply because if you are looking for views and beauty that take your breath away, it's definitely this town!
Lauterbrunnen is located in a valley where there js the Lauterbrunnen waterfall about 300m high and you can hear the loud roar of the waterfall from a distance away. For an outdoor and hiking enthusiasts 1 day in this town isn't enough due to the many activities situated all around Lauterbrunnen, simply because there is the staubbach falls hike, the murren hike and the trummelbach hike. But I definitely do recommend the Staubbach falls hike because this hike takes you to the top of the falls and the view from above is definitely scenic and will take your breath away fir sure.

Harder Kulm Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Top of Interlaken - Harder Kulm
#winhkflight #harderkulm #interlaken #switzerland
We went to Harder Kulm for the food, panoramic view of Interlaken and sunset. If you are visiting Harder Kulm, I would recommend you to come in the evening to enjoy all in one. You need to take funicular to reach the Harder Kulm. If not, you can choose to hike up, there’s hiking trail. It is definitely a nice place to enjoy your meal with the panoramic view of Interlaken and music. There are live folklore shows performing traditional Swiss music from May to October. You can check online for their performance time. There’s an amazing steel structure for you to take picture with the breathtaking views.
I want to travel to Hong Kong to experience their culture, foods and more.
Most Scenic spot in Interlaken
#switzerland is the land of mountains and this one is of the best place to be for that. Harder Kulm, a mountain looming over the town of Interlaken, gives picture perfect views of 3 tall of majestic mountains across the valley.
Harder Kulm can be reached either by hiking or taking a scenic furnicular from Interlaken Ost station. The views as you climb up get even better as you will get to see the two stunningly blue lakes that the town got its name from. At the top. every single step offer opportunities to take memorable photos that will last for a lifetime. #awesomepic #scenic #viewsfordays #holidays

#newyearadventure
The Harder Kulm in Interlaken is a viewpoint at 1,322 metres in the Berner Oberland region of Switzerland. It will take around 10 minutes to travel up in a funicular (do take note of the last ride in order not to miss it).
The view is superb, amazing, and breathtaking.
The restaurant is a good place to rest and have some food in such a serene setting. We tried our first founde in Switzerland, and the waiter actually took the effort to "teach" us how to eat. Great service!

At the top of Harder Klum!
This was taken at the top of the Harder Klum! We went up in the late afternoon via the vertical train up! It take roughly about 20mins to travel all the way up! Be sure to take the bottom row seats to ensure a Birds Eye view while it’s moving up!
It was breathtaking to see the 2 lakes and interlaken in between! Definitely recommend if you haven’t visit! A must do! 🥳 #harderklum #interlaken #switzerland
