#SwissTravel 📍Swiss scenery and Swiss flags are hanging in every city, and they go well together~ Swiss prices are a bit evil, so I wonder if I can go again, but Lucerne is the most beautiful city in Switzerland and the city I want to go to again. 👍I think it's more beautiful because of Lake Lucerne.

One of the most unforgettable experiences of my trip was enjoying Dinner + Beer atop Stanserhorn in Switzerland. This wasn’t just an ordinary meal; it was a dinner paired with million-dollar views and an atmosphere that made every bite even more delightful! 🚠 The Journey The journey to the summit began with a cogwheel train from Stans, followed by the CabriO – the world’s first open-roof cable car. It was an exhilarating ride offering unobstructed panoramic views. The route up the mountain was surrounded by lush greenery, and once at the top, the breathtaking views of mountains and lakes left me speechless. 🍽️ Dinner at the Summit Restaurant Dinner was served in Swiss style, featuring both local and fusion dishes. I opted for Rösti with Swiss sausage, served hot alongside a chilled local beer. The flavors complemented each other perfectly. The restaurant had a simple yet cozy decor, with large windows offering a 360-degree view to enjoy while dining. 🍺 Local Beer The beer served was fresh from Central Switzerland, with a smooth and mellow taste—not too bitter. It was perfect for both beer enthusiasts and those looking to try something light to pair with their meal. 🌄 Evening Atmosphere The best time was during the evening, just before sunset. The restaurant’s view encompassed Lake Lucerne and Mount Pilatus in the distance. The sky gradually changed colors, and the last rays of sunlight reflected off the snowy peaks, creating a scene too beautiful for words.
