Anyone who has been to Switzerland is full of praise for it. This charming country full of mystery is very beautiful in all seasons. But many people say "responsibly": don't go to Switzerland in winter!

Towering mountains, pure glaciers, peaceful towns, and beautiful snowscapes, as long as you have been to Switzerland once in winter, you will never want to leave.

Switzerland is a country of mountains. The Alps, known as the "backbone of Europe", account for about 60% of Switzerland's land area.

There are 48 peaks above 4,000 meters above sea level and more than 3,350 peaks above 2,000 meters above sea level in Switzerland. In winter, the Alps are covered with snow and ice, turning into a fairy tale world.

Most of the mountains and mountains in Switzerland are unique in shape, as steep and straight as a knife, and as majestic as an axe, which is unforgettable.

Among them, the Matterhorn in the Valais canton in southern Switzerland is the most representative one, and its triangular shape is the prototype of the best-selling Swiss Toblerone Chocolate.

In fact, the Matterhorn is not only the most fascinating mountain in the Alps but also a landmark that the Swiss are proud of. Although its altitude of 4478 meters is not the highest peak, it is called the unique "King of the Mountain".

His majesty and heroism reached their highest value in winter. The blue-gray mountain was covered with snow-capped mountains.

Countless people come to Switzerland just to see the true face of the Matterhorn. The mountain town of Zermatt in the canton of Valais is one of the most famous tourist destinations in Switzerland because of the Matterhorn.

Winter is definitely the peak tourist season here. Walking on the streets of Zermatt, you will find almost all professional climbers, skiers, tour groups, and backpackers who come here, making the quiet town full of hustle and bustle.

If you want to get up close and personal with the Matterhorn, the best viewing point is the Gornergrat viewing platform at an altitude of 3110 meters, where you can almost see the Matterhorn.

Surrounded by the mountains in front of you, thousands of miles of ice-covered snow-capped mountains are rolling, looking at the surrounding 38 peaks above 4,000 meters above sea level, showing the grandeur and majesty of the Matterhorn.

To reach this viewing platform, which is known as "the most beautiful panoramic view of snow-capped mountains in the world", you need to take the Gornergrat Bahn from the center of the small town of Zermatt.

It only takes about 33 minutes to make this happen. Above the clouds, the snow-capped mountains are pure white and holy, and the cold and heroic Matterhorn makes everything look like an illusion.

In the pure white world of ice and snow, the Gornergrat Bahn, like a dazzling red, travels between glaciers and mountains, adding to the fairy tale color of Switzerland in winter.

In fact, this train is the first cog train in Switzerland to use electricity. It was officially opened in 1898 and has a history of more than 100 years.
