Here under Switzerland - St Moritz, you will find travel information about St Moritz, the luxury resort in the Swiss Alps.
St Moritz has several world famous luxury hotels and resorts: Suvretta House (picture below), Kempinski Grand Hotel, Carlton, Kulm (exceptional and peaceful), Badrutt's Palace. They are part of the local landscape in their own right.
To see and do in St Moritz:
Engadiner Museum - This building with its characteristic local architecture is an useful introduction to a walk through the villages of Engadine. Several typical village rooms have been admirably reconstructed here, such as the parade room n° IX, the most luxurious of all, that comes from the Visconti-Venosta house in Grosio.
Piz Nair - From the upper part of the cable car, after taking a funicular, the view covers all of Upper Engadin and its lakes. From the top, at 9,000 feet, there is a remarkable 360-degree view.
Zuoz Central Square - The Central Square, with a fountain topped with the heraldic bear of the Plantas, has the Planta House on the north side, which is made up of two different houses that share a roof. In the Engadine style, the square has a noble feel to it due to the unusual size and its Rococo staircase.
Davos Hohe Promenade - Davos is another fancy resort of the Swiss Alps, 45 miles away from St Moritz. This path, partly under the woods, is perfectly well maintained (clear of snow in winter). It can be reached from Davos-Dorf, by the road going up behind the Seehof hotel and from Davos-Platz, by the steep path along the road to the Catholic church.
"The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page", St. Augustine said. Here at www.travel-university.org we believe that every page must be read and explored. Travel is an avenue of learning that no text or classroom can teach. The world is a living classroom and you the student. We invite you to the www.travel-university.org library where you can read general interest and detail oriented articles.
