Switzerland attracts travelers with its remarkable landscapes, lovely lakes, picturesque towns and villages, vast greeneries, and the famed Swiss Alps. Its most extensive body of water, Lake Geneva, is bordered by mountains and is home to the historic medieval fortress Chillon Castle. Some heritage sites you can visit in the country are Old City of Berne, Abbey of Saint Gall, and fortress of Bellinzona, to name a few. Towns, cities, and villages such as Lucerne, Stein am Rhein, Interlaken, Gimmelwald, and Grindelwald will transport you to a fairy tale! During your visit, don’t miss out on their world-renowned cheeses and chocolates, which have been refined for centuries.
The best months to visit are April through June, but each season provides different chances for activities, so plan your vacation accordingly. If you intend to stay here for a month or more, read on to find the top long-term Rentals in Switzerland.
Tip from tour guide
Another must-visit area in Switzerland is Schaffhausen, which boasts an ancient fortress and half-timbered houses along the Rhine. It is also the town where IWC-brand watches, the only world-famous watches in the German-speaking part of Switzerland, are manufactured. Europe's largest waterfall, Rhine Falls, is here too.
