Switzerland – From Rugged Alps to Mediterranean Ticino

Snow-capped peaks above Engelberg, the calm blue of Lake Zurich, the red-tiled roofs of Basel's old town along the Rhine – and in the south, beyond the Alps, Mediterranean Ticino with its palm trees, lakes, and Italian flair. Few countries pack such different landscapes and moods into such a small space as Switzerland does. This gallery shows a small selection of it, presented with LightGallery: a large, focused image view with its own smooth transitions as you browse through.
