Such inclusion does not constitute an endorsement of product or service by archaeolink.com. Sites are included for information value only. The number of sites available online for this topic is enormous. This site can not and does not index all travel resources for a country. These "tourism" pages are basically designed as a supplement to the Switzerland Social Studies links rather than for the avid business or pleasure traveler. For those of you for whom this "supplementary" material is not enough, the following does provide some idea of what is available online and will hopefully be a good starting point for a more serious search. IgoUgo: Switzerland Tourism, Things To Do In Switzerland __ You will find a series of journals written by real travelers giving their impressions and recommendations. - illustrated - From igougo.com - http://www.igougo.com/planning/journalRegion.asp?LocationID=298 Switzerland __ "Switzerland conjures up a fair swag of clichs: irresistible chocolates, kitsch clocks, yodelling Heidis, humourless bankers, international bureaucracies and an orderly, anally-retentive and rather bland national persona. But Harry Lime was wrong on more than one account when, in The Third Man , he said 500 years of Swiss democracy and peace had produced nothing more than the cuckoo clock. For a start, the Germans invented this monstrous timepiece; secondly, the Swiss, who are a brainy lot, have won more Nobel Prizes and registered more patents per capita than any other nation on earth. Muesli, DDT and life insurance may not be the stuff of legend, but where would the rest of us swashbucklers be without a bit of Swiss nous behind us?" History, culture, statistics and more. - illustrated - From Lonely Planet - http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinations/europe/switzerland/ Switzerland Tourism __ Learn all you need to have a great vacation in Switzerland. You will find information about sights to see and things to do along with accommodations, events, weather, shopping and a lot more. - illustrated - From myswitzerland.com - http://www.myswitzerland.com/ Switzerland tourism - Switzerland vacation reviews __ Wide ranging general interest page about Switzerland tourism including hotel recommendations, sights to see and things to do. - illustrated - From tripadvisor.com - http://www.tripadvisor.com/Tourism-g188045-Switzerland-Vacations.html Switzerland Travel Guide @ TravelNotes.org __ "...Switzerland is also called La Suisse in French; Schweiz in German; and Svizzera in Italian.
