[2025 Montreux Attraction] Travel Guide for Montreux Christmas Village, Switzerland (Updated Mar)

It was an amazing experience to be able to ride this vintage train from Montreux to Interlaken. I literally forgot about the time that i’ve been spending since I enjoyed the views which are really mesmerising. From the golden leaves to the sparking white mountains , all I could say is How Great You are God! By the way, I purchased a Swiss Travel Pass which I got on sale last Autumn. It was an unlimited ride from most of the transportations and its worthy! #switzerland #newyearadventure #mountainview #train
