《Swiss Panoramic Tour: First Experience of the Tranquility and Beauty at the Foot of the Alps》

At the ninth stop, we checked into a small town hotel at the foot of the Swiss Glacier 3000 and began to experience the charm of the Swiss Alps. This small town is like a pearl hidden in the mountains, exuding a tranquil and simple atmosphere. The hotel is surrounded by endless green countryside, with rolling hills, lush grass and brilliant wild flowers. The farmhouses in the distance are scattered around in an orderly manner, with wisps of smoke rising from the chimneys, as if telling of the warmth and comfort of rural life. In the early morning, the sunlight gently wakes us up through the gaps in the curtains. When you open the window, fresh air rushes in, carrying the fragrance of earth and grass. Looking around, farmers have already been busy in the fields. Some of them are driving modern agricultural machinery to harvest grass, while others are bending over and carefully picking ripe fruits and vegetables. There was an old farmer who skillfully rode a horse to plow the field. His steady posture seemed as if he was having an affectionate conversation with the land. In the afternoon, we strolled along the mountain trails, feeling the caress of the breeze and listening to the birds singing. The sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves and onto the ground, forming spots of light. The surrounding forests are lush and green, exuding the mysterious atmosphere of nature. The snow-capped mountains in the distance appear particularly magnificent against the backdrop of the blue sky. The white snow peaks and the lush green forests are intertwined to form a beautiful picture. At the town’s market, we saw a wide variety of local specialties. Fresh milk, homemade cheese, freshly baked bread, and beautiful hand-woven textiles. A craftsman was concentrating on making a wood carving. The carving knife in his hand flew up and down. After a while, a lifelike animal image appeared. In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the whole town golden. People returned home one after another, sat around the dining table, enjoyed a sumptuous dinner and shared what they had seen and heard during the day. At this time, the town is full of laughter and the warm atmosphere is intoxicating. Here, life and nature are perfectly integrated, and elegance and tranquility become the main themes of life. We immersed ourselves in the tranquility, feeling the gifts of nature, and deeply experienced the beauty of being integrated into nature that Europeans pursue when they vacation in Switzerland. The pastoral life in Switzerland is like a beautiful poem, which makes people linger and indulge in it.
