Kreuzlingen
Switzerland, officially the Swiss Confederation, is a landlocked Alpine country in Central Europe. It had been a federation, since 1848, of relatively autonomous cantons, some of which have a history of confederacy that goes back more than 700 years, arguably putting them among the world's oldest surviving republics. Switzerland comprises three basic topographical areas namely the Swiss Alps, the Swiss plateau, and the Jura Mountains. Switzerland has four official languages, German in the north and centre, French to the west, Italian in the south and Romansh in the southeast. Switzerland has a strong economy in finance and banking, and a long and strong tradition of political and military neutrality.
Kreuzlingen is a city in Switzerland bordering with Konstanz in Germany. It’s located in the canton of Thurgau, which is bound by the Lake Constance across which lie Germany and Austria in the north, the river Rhine creates the border in the northwest, the canton of Saint Gallen in the south and the cantons of Zurich and Schaffhausen to the west. It is halfway between Schaffhausen and Rorschach on a slightly southward-dipping west-east axis. It is the second largest city of the canton with a population of 17,441 living within an area of 11.5 square kilometers, as of 2004. Kreuzlingen is a rail node, and also the northern terminus of the A7 motorway in Switzerland.
A thousand surprising discoveries, great kids hotels, excellent family resorts, one country, Switzerland is a truly unique adventure playground for all those who want more than just the seaside, who want more originality, and authenticity, more variety and more family fun. Here, everything is just around the corner and nothing is closer than pure enjoyment.
