Most likely you just thought either mountains, the alps, yodeling, or lederhosen. We are going to incorporate all of these things into the best place to visit in Switzerland.

This is why I would recommend making the time to visit the Piz Gloria.

The Piz Gloria is a revolving restaurant on the top of this mountain that was the location for the Bond, James Bond film, “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service.” To reach this destination, nearly 2970m above sea level, you have to travel by a combination of train, bus, and cable car. The cable cars up the mountain give an excellent panoramic view of the valley below and the surrounding mountains.

Once you reach the mountain top restaurant, you can dine for breakfast or lunch as you revolve around and receive a 360 degree spectacular and oh-so scenic view. You can walk outside and out onto the edge of the top of the mountain- which I must say, is actually pretty scary, but well worth it!
