ABOUT SWITZERLAND
Switzerland
Switzerland is famous throughout the world for its wonderful countryside, luxury watches and chocolate. But did you know that only 50 years ago Switzerland had to deal with polluted lakes and rivers, foul air and environmental pollution? Thanks to new technologies and methods, these problems were rapidly solved. Did you know that Switzerland produces not only luxury watches but also the world's best-selling low-price watch?
