    Engelberg-Titlis is a breathtaking alpine paradise that stole my heart! The panoramic views from the rotating cable car are absolutely unforgettable. From snow-covered peaks to thrilling glacier activities, every moment felt magical. The Titlis Cliff Walk offered an adrenaline rush with stunning scenery. Engelberg village, with its charming vibes and cozy cafés, added a peaceful touch to the adventure. Whether you're a nature lover or thrill-seeker, this destination is a must-visit.

    Lake Lucerne is really nice. When the weather is good, you can see the snow-capped mountains. Unfortunately, we stayed there for three days, and the weather was good only when we arrived in the evening of the first day, so we didn't take advantage of it. The buildings by the lake, the Ferris wheel, and the Flower Bridge Water Tower are simply too beautiful to take in. The boat ride to Weggis is even more beautiful.

    It is recommended to take the Golden Circle Line. You can experience different transportation without going back, including cruise ship-gear train-cable car-train. You can enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. There are many outdoor activities on the mountain, which is very interesting.

    On the way from Lucerne to Interlaken, we passed the small town of Lungern. The town is very popular with tourists because of a very beautiful lake - Lake Lungern. There is also a church in the town, which is very eye-catching. It is more convenient to drive here.
