Switzerland


SWITZERLAND


 

Hi, I'm Olivia and I'm Swiss. I'm sure that you already know some things about Switzerland because I always tell you things because I'm very proud of being Swiss.

LOCALISATION:
Switzerland is the neighbor country of France, Germany, Austria and Italy.

FOOD:
A lot of typical foods from Switzerland are made with cheese because in Switzerland we have very good cheese. One of these typical foods is Fondue.










But the most famous food is chocolate.











SWITZERLAND IS FAMOUS FOR:
Switzerland is not only famous for chocolate, it's also famous for it's watches, banks, mountains and punctuality. Some of the most famous brands are: Rolex, Omega, Tissot and Swatch.




































 









 

























My canton, St.Gallen, is famous for it's lace.













Women like Michelle Obama and Amal Alamuddin wear lace from St.Gallen and Kate Middleton's wedding dress was made of this lace.













BEAUTIFUL PLACES
The Rheinfall which is a waterfall in Schaffausen is a very beautiful place that is visited every year by a lot of people.













In Switzerland there are a lot of beautiful cities like Zurich, Basel, Geneva and Bern. Bern is the capital but not the biggest city in Switzerland. The biggest one is Zurich.
