From the middle of the 18th century onward, Switzerland was a compulsory port of call for the cultured traveller. Artists & travellers competed with each other to portray its remarkable mountain landscapes, interwoven in heroic, silent atmospheres of damp woods, alternating with roaring waterfalls. Still it is not too late to encounter the same emotions, if you travel along the Jungfrau railway line
- the highest in Europe
- & stop off every so often to see the broad sweep of Switzerland from the dizzying tunnels high up in the mountains. On a clear day, you can see right down the valleys into the Black Forest & the Vosges &, on arrival, look up to the majestic summits of the Jungfrau, Monch & Eiger. Among Europe`s highest mountains, there is a medieval Switzerl&, austere & gothic, such as we can see in Chillon Castle, clinging to a rocky islet in the waters of Lake Geneva, with its labyrinth of halls & chimneys, & the paintings evoking the lives of the knights of old times. Then there is the Switzerland of the 18th century, the land of Baden, the most elegant of spas, where politics & frivolity came together in the elevated world of the Swiss & German aristocracy. The country of mountains, cheese, chocolate & clocks is, in fact, the most ancient & cosmopolitan country in Europe, a position it was able to achieve after a painful past, & now proudly guarded & preserved even in these days of economic & industrial progress.

General physical map of Switzerland from the Swiss national survey organization with contours, graphic relief & shading skillfully presenting the country`s mountainous terrain. The cartography is a reduction of the 1:200, 000 topographic series retaining the same information, so most place names are in *very small print*. The map is, therefore, more suitable for reference & not recommended for driving. The map has a 10km grid with Swiss national survey coordinates. Map legend is in German, French & Italian only. ...

A grid in steps of 20'shows latitude & longitude, with margin ticks for the Swiss national grid. Map legend is in German, French or Italian only. ...
