Geography

Switzerland is the quintessential alpine state, shares a border with Italy, France, Germany, Austria and Liechtentein.

Geographically it can be divided into three broad areas: the Alps; the highlands, which represent almost 40% and Jura. Between the Alps and the Jura lies a land of hills and plateaus that concentrates most of the 200 Swiss lakes.

The Swiss landscape is, in general, really spectacular, both in the valleys and mountains that form the waterfalls in their melting snow. The dominant color in all the land is green vegetation and white snow
