Bed of clouds.
The town is principally a base from which to explore the surrounding areas. Among the main attractions are the mountains of the Jungfrau region. Mountain railways gives access to the Jungfraujoch.
Jungfrau Park, an amusement park, is situated just to the south of interlaken.This was earlier called the "Mystery park".
We took the train from Basel and arrived at Interlaken west. After spending some time roaming around and shopping ,we took a bus to beatenberg from interlaken .the views were amazing while going up the mountain. After arriving at Beatenberg , we took the cable car. Cable cars and gondolas take you up to Neiderhorn. Many people were skiing and paragliding.We were not prepared for any of those as it was our first time in a snow covered place.We were too excited to see just snow itself.Would like to do it all someday.
