Bewitching Switzerland meets my expectation

I always had a desire to explore Switzerland for its scenic beauty and the moment I landed the country I realized that it was one of the  cleanest country I visited in Europe.  I could not take my eyes off the beautiful landscape. The transparent lakes and clear skies seemed to have entered into a tacit  agreement to reflect each others’ colours. Light blue hues on the sky combined with bluish lakes looked like a sight from the imagination

Switzerland is termed as the dream destination for honey moon couples from India and no wonder the country had everything to offer to stupefy the mind. The fascination for Switzerland as a holiday destination blossomed after the movie Bollywood  Dil Wale Duhaniya Le Jayenge where Shahrukh and Kajol fall in love with each other in Zurich.

I travelled  to Europe in summer so  at times I felt the heat while going out but  before our arrival to Switzerland it  had rained and the pleasant weather added to the beauty of the most fascinating country. Our boat ride to Rein fall was an exhilarating experience and our group members started dancing spontaneously. Out boat driver looked amused looking at the excitement of senior citizens dancing without music.

The moment the huge  waterfall  came closer people freaked in excitement  unable to control their happiness.   I looked at milky water in awe and could not for a moment  remove  my eyes  from the splendid sight. I  wanted  time to become still so that we could enjoy  and store the amazing sight till eternity. The incredibly huge waterfall splashing down with  great  force and the rising vapours  touching the cliffs looked extra ordinarily majestic.

After the boat ride we headed towards Zurich. The commercial capital looked out of the world and the serenity of Zurich lake made me fall in love with the city with the desire to stay there permanently

The air was cool and the still beauty of the lake looked fascinating.  I walked by the side of the lake and then sat on top of  the boat watching the sublime lake.

Cool breeze swept  over the lake in the partially clouded sky and gently wafted my hair. I felt my skin glistened with the purest air. Sitting on top of one of the boats I could see the ships, the ducks and the people lazing by the serene  lake.

I felt that Switzerland is matchless in terms of the scenic beauty and there was more in store for me as I came to Fallenflue. Before reaching the place we stopped by Schwyz town and came across a beautiful church painted with colourful images of valour . All the tourists got down from the bus and took shots of the amazing view.

We then  drove to the foothill of Fallenflue, the surrounding looked like a painting with mountains, clear sky, green grass, trees  and a hut shaped house nearby. The clear sky displayed  the thin contours of  light emanating from the sun.

The pleasant sunny weather made us very energetic and we all geared up to start walking towards the summit of the mountain. We were offered a ride by some of our friends from Switzerland to view the mountain from the top and as a result we barely walked for one kilometre to reach the summit.  I was in a state of euphoria to see the horizon in front of me. Different shaped mountains in front, lake cutting the trees  on the left and the houses at the foothill looked very beautiful.   The apex of the mountains was flat surface in some places and  pointed surface in some other places.

It was not just the mountains that arrested my eyes but the clear skies that had small  mountain like structure.  

As mentioned in my previous blogs that this trip was primarily undertaken to visit places visited by Meher Baba, an Indian spiritual master and I would like to conclude my article by sharing a picture of the master.
