Well, the one thing that you are bound to associate with Switzerland is its cold temperatures but there’s a lot more one will witness here. It’s been a city of great importance with a large number of international offices working out of here. This includes the World Trade Organization and the Red Cross. Switzerland’s economy is wealthy and its per capita income can make your head reel in awe. It is home to many affluent people because of its tax conditions.

The Swiss bank is envied the world over and then there is Swiss cheese and chocolates, ecstatic delicacies and much more for the lone traveler to this serene land. It’s an important member of the European union and of late the world knows it more because of Roger Federer who always has a battalion of synonymous red flags with a stark white cross in its midst. This year it’s also an important venue for the Euro 2008.
