Can you see what I see? 🤔🤔🤔
(hint: No zooming is needed; look at the left side of the iceberg...)
I promise you, once you see it, you can't unsee it! 😁😁😁

From the outside, it looks like just a mountain; once you enter its interior, you will hear thundering and roaring. They are from a series of ten waterfalls (Trümmelbach Falls) located inside this mountain which carry over twenty thousand litres of water per second from the glacier walls of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau mountains down to the Lauterbrunnen Valley.
It was a soaking wet day, a perfect day to visit Trümmelbach Falls because we would get wet anyway.
"The Trümmelbach Falls are the world's only glacier waterfalls that are accessible underground by lift, galleries, tunnels, paths and platforms. They alone carry the meltwater of the glaciers from the Jungfrau down to the valley - up to 20,000 liters of water per second. The water carries with it over 20,000 tons of boulders and scree per year and causes the entire mountain to shudder and make a thundering noise."
Thank you for taking a look, I appreciate your visit!

The Matterhorn is the Mountain of Mountains. Shaped like a jagged tooth, it's a magnet for adventurers looking for a mythical climb in Switzerland.
The Matterhorn became world-famous in 1865 after the first ascent which cost the lives of four out of seven alpinists. Since then, ambitious mountaineers aspired to climb it.
Morning is the best chance to see the Matterhorn in full view as clouds tend to move in later in the day.
For one of the best views of Matterhorn, it’s hard to beat Gornergrat. Once at the top station, you can simply enjoy the sweeping views of the Matterhorn and the Swiss Alps from the restaurant and terraces.
The best way to get to Gornergrat is to ride the Gornergrat Bahn, the highest open air railway in Europe, to the top station.
This photo of the Matterhorn was taken from inside the train in the early morning hour. To avoid the window glare/reflection, I was almost sitting on the floor. 😁
Thank you for your visit, dear Flickr friends!

The moon was rising as the sun was setting, with a bank of roll clouds pointing at the moon; what an interesting sight in the Bernese Alps on the second day of our trip!

While there have been many attempts to recreate the process of flying, none have come closer to paragliding.
Switzerland is often thought of as heaven on earth due to its mesmerizing and spectacular views. Looking at this paradise while soaring in the sky is an extraordinary experience.
People who’ve done it describe the experience as fascinating and almost like being a bird.
I'm happy enough just by photographing them from afar 😊; having a zoom lens would have been wonderful but not possible when traveling light.
(There are two paraglides in this photo.)
Thank you for having a look, dear Flickr friend, I wish you a fine day!🌹🌷🌺
