Switzerland is known for its mountains (Alps in south, Jura in northwest) but it also has a central plateau of rolling hills, plains, and large lakes. Switzerland is famous for a few key goods: watches, chocolate, cheese, and Swiss Army knives. Switzerland is the watch-making capital of the world, and "Swiss Made" on a watch face has long been a mark of quality. Switzerland can be a glorious whirlwind trip whether you've packed your hiking boots, snowboard, or just a good book and a pair of sunglasses. A country that looks on a map like it could comfortably fit into a National Park, Switzerland packs into it a continent worth of natural wonders and a culture and history rich enough to provide five museums for every rainy day of the year.
