[Trip Moment Delivery.🗞️]
On this trip, I walked through the snowy fields on the roof of Europe, visiting the Jungfraujoch Plateau! 🇨🇭❄️🌨️
🛄ㅣA white world unfolds as soon as you open the door
As you walk through the passageway inside Jungfraujoch Station, you'll see a sign that says "Plateau." As soon as you pass through that gate, a dazzling light and an endless snowy field suddenly unfold. The moment I stepped foot, the crunch of my feet tickled my ears, and the air was cold but clear and clean.
The 360-degree view of the snowy mountains and sky was more majestic than any painting. In the distance, the Mönch peak was clearly visible, and on the other side, the Aletsch Glacier stretched endlessly.
🌿 A moment of tranquility, as if walking on clouds
Above Plateau truly felt like a "world above the sky." Clouds covered my feet, and sunlight streamed down upon them, sparkling white snow. The wind was fierce, but there was barely a sound. Even the sounds of people's conversations seemed to be absorbed by the snow, and the only sounds were the wind and the flapping of snowflakes.
I briefly raised my head and gazed at the sky, a much deeper blue than the ground. The thin air made me a little breathless, but even that made me realize just how high I was.
🏔️ The wonder created by snow and sunlight
As the sunlight touched the snow, its surface sparkled like a diamond. I picked up the snow with my gloved hands, my fingertips tingled, but its clear texture was truly impressive. Tourists nearby were happily taking pictures, throwing snow, and laughing. In the distance, the Sphinx Observatory seemed to float above the glacier.
In that moment, the thought crossed my mind, "I'm truly standing in the Alpine sky," and that feeling warmed me even in the cold air.
✅️ | Travel Tips
1️⃣ Footwear Selection – Non-slip, waterproof trekking shoes or snow boots are essential. Regular sneakers will get wet right away.
2️⃣ Clothing – The temperature feels like -10°C or lower. A windbreaker, gloves, a hat, and sunglasses are essential.
3️⃣ Photo Tips – Take a front-on photo with the Sphinx Observatory in the background for the perfect "Top of Europe" logo!
4️⃣ Precautions – Because it's a high-altitude area, staying too long can cause dizziness. Move between indoors and outdoors every 10-15 minutes to regulate your body temperature.
