If you plan on travelling around Switzerland, it's not hard to visit many of Switzerland's top sites during your Swiss holiday. Because Switzerland is a small country, its attractions are near each other and can be reached quite easily. There is also an efficient Swiss transport system – from trains to ferries to cable cars – that can easily take you to most of the top sites in Switzerland. Mountain resorts, lakes, forests, castles, museums, and ancient and modern architecture make this federal Swiss republic an excellent tourist destination. With its low crime rate, Switzerland is also very safe for tourists.
