Switzerland is known as a summer and winter sports paradise (just look at those glistening white 4000m-plus Alpine peaks and glittering lakes), Switzerland is where people first skied for fun. Illustrious names evoke all the romance and glamorous drama of the mountain high life: Zermatt, St Moritz, Interlaken, Gstaad, the Jungfrau, Verbier and more. Cities like Geneva (the most cosmopolitan), Zürich (the most outrageous), Basel and Lausanne heave with heady artistic activity and sometimes incendiary nightlife.
The shores of many of Switzerland's lakes fill up with bathers and sun-worshippers on warm summer days - some areas are endowed with small sandy beaches, others have grassy patches on which people spread out their towels. Often, there are wooden jetties leading out to slightly deeper parts of the lake; sometimes there are installations complete with diving boards.
People even go swimming in the Swiss capital, Bern, allowing themselves to be carried along by the river Area - but making sure to get out before it flows over a weir.
The Swiss have a well-deserved reputation for being hard workers, but they enjoy their leisure as much as anyone else. Leisure activities range from taking part in gruelling sports to relaxing with family and friends. Many people also devote part of their leisure time to the public service.
Switzerland boasts a thriving arts scene, with its architects in particular achieving world-wide acclaim. The culture of Switzerland is characterized by diversity.
The wide range of traditional customs is one reflection of this diversity.
