231 Titlis Journey

Switzerland is a world-famous ski resort, with more than 200 ski resorts, even in summer, there are still several ski resorts to visit, and Su Zhen's destination this time is Engelberg (Engelberg) in central Switzerland.

Although it is two countries, but the two countries are neighboring countries, Switzerland is a small country, from Su Zhen's castle to Engelbeck is only 300 kilometers, because they have applied for the route in advance, so Su Zhen and they drove the helicopter directly, and arrived at the destination in less than two hours.

The town of Engelberg is famous for the Titlis Snow Mountain, which is a famous scenic spot in the entire Alps, with an altitude of 3,238 meters above sea level, and snow all year round, so you can ski all year round, but the best ski season is from December to February.

"Sue, hurry up" Emma ran quickly on the mountain road with Alex with a silver bell-like laugh, shouting to Su Zhen who was lagging behind.

There is only one route from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain, and the first section can choose to wait for the cable car or climb up, obviously now Su Zhen and Emma chose to climb up, because Emma said that they could enjoy the scenery along the way, but Su Zhen looked at the two little guys who ran far away, you are running so fast, what about looking at the scenery? I had to sigh helplessly, and the two bodyguards behind me followed as soon as possible.

When they arrived at the transfer station of the second section, Mark and others who came up by cable car had been waiting for a long time with their luggage, don't look at it is summer, but since the snow on the top of the mountain, this means that the temperature on the mountain is very low, and the task of the bodyguards is quite "heavy", in addition to everyone's cold-proof clothes and cold-proof boots, there are also a full set of ski equipment for Su Zhen and several people, so Su Zhen is very open-minded to let a few bodyguards with luggage take the cable car, although there are also shops on the top of the mountain that rent and sell related items, However, Su Zhenke did not have the habit of wearing clothes and equipment that were worn by N people. Even if it is sterilized, it is not good, and the equipment sold is obviously not as good as its own special customization.

The second section has to take the cable car, and the second section is really nothing to see, all some brown-gray rocks and a small amount of ice and snow, but to Su Zhen's surprise, the cable car is posted everywhere in Chinese, and I also saw several Chinese tourists on the cable car.

There are many tourists who recognize Emma, after all, Harry Potter is now popular all over the world, and there are not many people who don't know Emma, the number one heroine in the movie, but they are afraid of the black-clad bodyguards around her. No one dared to come up and talk casually.

"Look what's that? Goats? Alex, looking around with a telescope, pointed to a rock wall in the distance.

Su Zhen and the others looked in the direction, and there had been some goat-like animals climbing on the steep rock wall.

"That's a rock antelope," Su Zhen looked at the very distinctive little horn on the animal's head and said, "Its ability to climb mountains is even more powerful than that of a goat, this should be a ram, and the ewe generally does not move alone."

"Can we hunt them?" Alex asked, the kid had quickly developed a fondness for hunting in the past few days in Germany, and wanted to shoot any animal he saw.

"No, that's a protected animal," Su Zhen said with a smile and lined up Alex's head.

"Oh" Alex agreed with some regret, and turned his head to look at the antelope, which was climbing very fast. Soon disappeared into a corner of the cliff.

One of the most famous tourist facilities in Titlis Mountain is the world's first 360-degree rotating sightseeing cable car, the top of which can rotate automatically, allowing visitors to see different snow-capped mountain scenery on the way to the mountain. And from here, it was already all white and ang, and everyone changed into ski clothes, and the cable car went straight to the top of the mountain. Once you reach the top of the mountain, you can ski.

However, when they reached the top of the mountain, they did not ski directly, and the cable car station at the top of the mountain has a total of five floors. In addition to the cable car on the ground floor, there are various souvenir shops, watch shops, and national clothing shops, but there is nothing very special about the souvenirs here, and the clocks in the watch shop are just ordinary goods, and the omega in the hands of the little witch cannot be compared. Not to mention the seemingly inconspicuous Patek Philippe SkyMoonTourbillonRef.5002 watch in Su Zhen's hand, at first he didn't know the value of the fast watch, and he didn't have the habit of bringing a watch, but because it was a 16th birthday gift from Rachel, he took it, and then Lux saw it, and Su Zhen knew the value of this watch, which was a new watch launched by Patek Philippe in 2001, and was the first double-sided watch that could display the entire night sky on the back of the case, and the watch could show the activity of the stars, the trajectory of the moon, the moon phases, and the time and minutes are displayed in sidereal time, which can be said to be the most complex mechanical watch in history, so only two pieces are produced every year, and the order price of each watch is 1 million US dollars, and the order has been scheduled for more than ten years, and now the market price has exceeded 1.2 million, especially after hearing that the highest auction price in the history of Patek Philippe was as high as 11 million US dollars at Sotheby's in 1999.

In addition to these special stores, the only thing worth visiting is the ice cave on Mount Titlis, which is a naturally formed long cave deep into the interior of the mountain, and the inner wall is covered by thick ice all year round, even if it is summer, it is still very thick, and you can't see through the rock wall behind the ice at all.

Out of the ice cave, the group went up to the second floor, there are all kinds of restaurants, pubs, cafes, the ice cream cone here is very good, one person bought one, and the feeling of tasting ice cream in the ice and snow is still very good.

There are no special attractions on the third and fourth floors, and the fifth layer is the top of the mountain, the famous snow platform, a white expanse, not far away is the snow that does not melt all year round, even in summer, there are still many people skiing here.

"Hello, what is this?" On the platform, Emma saw two old men standing on top of Heita, holding a horn with an extremely long handle.

"Hello, pretty little girl, is this one of our trumpets here, would you like to hear it?" One of the old men smiled kindly at Emma.

"Okay, okay," Alex on the side shouted first.

The old man smiled and nodded, and soon, a low horn sounded.

"Can you let me try it?" Emma said with some eagerness.

"Of course," said the old man, handing the horn to Emma, and instructed him carefully.

And Su Zhen chatted with another old man, it turned out that the two old men were also making money, like tourists showing their strange musical instruments and taking pictures with tourists is their way to make money, but it is not mandatory, if tourists are willing, they can give some tips, if they don't want to give, they won't say anything, unlike those scenic spots in China, all kinds of rampant charge photography, don't give money and chase you, and so Emma and Alex are too addicted, Su Zhen generously gave the two old men a piece of iron stained glass.

"Thank you for your generosity" In the two lovely old men's thanks, Su Zhen and Emma walked to the other end of the platform, they were not ready to start skiing immediately, there was another fun thing waiting for them, that is, the flying chairlift. (To be continued......)
