A week travel in Switzerland and around

It is a well known fact, that Switzerland is a beautiful, well organized and clean country. And you realize it even more once you cross the border to France оr Italy.

After we traveled by train from Basel to Colmar (in France), we felt a different atmosphere and feelings. It was similar, but not as clean and well maintained.

Then we went to Locarno and later to Milan and then the differences were even greater. It is so pretty but at the same time not as clean and preserved, the people are noisier, and the rules are less and less respected.I have always insisted that the better the sound of a language, the better the food and higher the temperature are, the worse respect for rules, cleanliness/maintenance and the discipline are :) (and people noisier are). Below - a casle in Schaffhausen (Switzerland) vs the one in Milan. So .. you cannot have it all so enjoy :)The other huge difference were of course the churches (architecture, art, religious perception)- catholic vs protestant.
