The Top of Europe - Jungfrau

After six years, I embarked on another journey to the Swiss alpine snow peaks, this time to the Jungfrau, which stands at an altitude of 4,158 meters. It is said that although the Jungfrau is known as the "Top of Europe," it is not the highest peak in Europe. The highest peak in Europe is Mont Blanc, located on the border between France and Italy, with an altitude exceeding 4,800 meters, earning it the title "Roof of Europe." The Swiss have used titles like "Top of Europe" and "Queen of the Alps" to promote Jungfrau, and they have built the highest-altitude railway station in Europe (at 3,454 meters) to make Jungfrau a highly sought-after Swiss tourist destination, attracting over a million visitors annually. Taking the mountain cable car down, you can overlook the beautiful scenery of alpine meadows and cottages from above. The final segment of the cogwheel train also stops at a viewing platform, where you can see the stunning views of blue skies, snow-capped mountains, and glaciers through large observation windows. If you're lucky and not disturbed by wind, rain, or fog at the summit, you can enjoy the breathtaking views of snow-capped mountains surrounded by blue skies and white clouds.
