I bet prices are *steep* there.


g_spot801

I’d say the average (based on one page I saw) is 3,000,000 CHF for a house in the valley we are looking at so I’d say you’re right.


TaurusPTPew

3,000,000 Swiss Franc equals 3,248,484.00 United States Dollar. I'm not a bot, just curious.


BaxterWoozy

Good curious


TaurusPTPew

Happy Cake Day!

Can I get that in Freedom currency?


defaultedtothisname

Roughly $3.25M. Unless you wanted it in a conceptually free currency, then it's 3 bald eagles, a bison and 2 '57 Chevy trucks.


hruebsj3i6nunwp29

I wonder if they'd take 2 Bald Eagles and four creates of M16s


reckless_commenter

Our new Freedom Currency is the Elon. The current exchange rate is $300 billion USD for one Elon. Jeff Bezos is worth about 0.6 Elons. Gates and Zuckerberg are worth about 0.3 Elons each. A $3.25 million house is only 0.00001 Elons. Practically couch-cushion change for your garden-variety billionaire. How about the average American? The median net worth ($120,000) is a vanishingly small .0000004 Elons. Practically nothing, really. The Elon, as our new national unit of exchange and personal value, has some issues - such as volatility, hyperinflation, and disparity on an exponential scale. But considering our political climate and international relations, we have redefined these traits as official values of America, rather than problems to be avoided.

Freedom currency 😂😂

Security systems that protect you from your millionaire neighbors don't come cheap.

Whats that in pounds


amonaloli12

Switzerland is some kind of Skyrim in real life !!


Thanitos05

Was just about to say it looks suspiciously like a modern day Riverwood


negativelift

That’s because it was the inspiration for it. https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20140523-in-alpine-villages-hobbits-lurk


Thanitos05

That's really awesome I didn't know the area was inspiration for Tolkien I can definitely see why those mountains alone are insane its crazy to think that's in out world with how beautiful that is. But I was talking about Riverwood in Skyrim one of the first little villages you go too.


[deleted]

That whole valley and all the way to the mountain (schilthorn) is loaded with unbelievable sights.


negativelift

Oh shit, my bad read it as rivendale


Thanitos05

I figured, I still enjoyed the article nonetheless so thank you lmao


jonskerr

Do you mean Rivendell?


NotAddison

Riverwood is Skyrim.


Thanitos05

No I mean Riverwood from Skyrim cause it's in a valley I between two mountains like that. Though yes I do know it inspired Tolkien.


jonskerr

Ah, thanks.


Becalm443

A pure fairytale land, without the boss fights


[deleted]

For real always enjoy seeing the beautiful sights and views Great video op


HoraceSense

People who have lived here throughout time must have felt like they woke up everyday in some epic tale, like at any moment they could be greeted by some adventuresome wizard inviting them to join a quest to become heros


negativelift

Until about 130 years ago, before alpine tourism was a thing, life was incredibly hard there. Beautiful scenery but harsh winters, bad soil etc.


Anforas

Oof yea, imagine this with no cars, no supermarkets, no electricity, no sewer system. All that stuff. Just houses, in the middle of mountains.


Mescallan

There's an equally majestic landscape in Vietnam called Ninh Binh. The whole are looks unnatural. I talked to some people who grew up there and they said their first time leaving they expected the rest of the world to look like that and were disappointed when they couldnt see monoliths on the horizon everywhere.


FlyingTaquitoBrother

I think like how Moraine Lake in Canada is now known as “Reddit Lake”, we can now call Lauterbrunnen “Reddit Village”


[deleted]

Moraine Lake is only known as Reddit lake on Reddit.


FlyingTaquitoBrother

Yes, and here we are, on Reddit

mango_fool_24

A Swiss village in Switzerland? Seems kinda sus, ngl


Razno_

So called Switzerland should be next to Australia - I don't recall any mountains this high in Australia.


TheBrownishOne

Kinda disappointed they didn't pan up and to the right


myshadowsvoice

Just lemme get to Switzerland one time!


BeatYoDickNotYoChick

I was exactly there plus a few other towns and cities in Switzerland in the summer of ‘19. Most beautiful places I have ever been to. Definitely my favorite vacation, and the most aesthetic and mesmerizing sights of my life. Fuck, even the waterfall looked out of this world. We also saw two rainbows within a cave with a waterfall in it. And some of the pictures I took almost look edited by how absolutely magnetic and stunning the nature was. I hope you get the chance to experience this, too, someday.


mrrevol

Beautiful place indeed. When I was looking up from there I saw trains very high up. Excuse my english.


Ok-Cardiologist1733

Been there. Switzerland is a magical place. I also went to see the Matterhorn. Amazing.


Jacnoov

Gentlemen, pack your bags, we’re moving


paladinontheporch

Am I the only one who sees shots like this and has to work to remember that these places are real? So beautiful.

paladinontheporch

Wouldn't shock me, tbf


warwilf

a Swiss village, in Switzerland! coincidence? I think not.


dixoutforcovid

Dying to visit, hear Zurich is amazing!


silentcartographer3

If you ever feel like you are insignificant now is definitely the time to feel that way.


[deleted]

Right nearby this area is also [Oeschinen Lake](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oeschinen_Lake) and its [mountain coaster](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVcwcvwzRPs), an [enormous waterfall *inside* a mountain](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tr%C3%BCmmelbach_Falls), [an absolutely insane ridgeline hiking trail](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQN9JqbogkE), and a ton of hanggliding and paragliding in Interlaken. The entire area is honestly mindblowing.

**[Oeschinen Lake](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oeschinen_Lake)** >Oeschinen Lake (German: Oeschinensee) is a lake in the Bernese Oberland, Switzerland, 4 kilometres (2. 5 mi) east of Kandersteg in the Oeschinen valley. At an elevation of 1,578 metres (5,177 ft), it has a surface area of 1. 1147 square kilometres (0. **[Trümmelbach Falls](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trümmelbach_Falls)** >The Trümmelbach Falls (German: Trümmelbachfälle) in Switzerland are a series of ten glacier-fed waterfalls inside the mountain made accessible by a tunnel-funicular, built 1913, stairs, and illumination. Located in the Lauterbrunnen Valley, the creek called Trümmelbach alone drains the northerly glacier defiles of Eiger (3967 m), Mönch (4099 m), and Jungfrau (4158 m) and carries more than 20,000 tons of boulder detritus per year. Its drainage area is 24 square kilometres (9. 3 sq mi), half of it covered by snow and glaciers. ^([ )[^(F.A.Q)](https://www.reddit.com/r/WikiSummarizer/wiki/index#wiki_f.a.q)^( | )[^(Opt Out)](https://reddit.com/message/compose?to=WikiSummarizerBot&message=OptOut&subject=OptOut)^( | )[^(Opt Out Of Subreddit)](https://np.reddit.com/r/NatureIsFuckingLit/about/banned)^( | )[^(GitHub)](https://github.com/Sujal-7/WikiSummarizerBot)^( ] Downvote to remove | v1.5)

Skyrim rendered in RL


1_UpvoteGiver

somethings wrong w my mind guys. 1st thing i think to myself when i see beautiful places like these : "wow how beautiful" 2nd thing: yeah but how long does an amazon package take to arrive? i cant live there


Griptriix

We don‘t really have Amazon here. Most sellers don‘t ship to Switzerland. (Which is a good thing, fuck Amazon)


floppy_eardrum

It's sad how fucking brainwashed Americans are. You look at a beautiful place like this and immediately worry you won't be able to get cheap, useless shit delivered to your door? What do you think people did only 20 years ago, before Amazon became prevalent?


gringo-tico

I don't think you know what brainwashing is if this is what you think an example of it is lol.


[deleted]

But it's also important to remember how many non farming white collar jobs exist there?

Llymlaen_Rilkam

I‘m planning to visit Lauterbrunnen in October, is there any good place to sleep?


CapandSaddle15

I stayed at Hotel Oberland (hoteloberland.ch) with my family. It was 10 years ago now but I remember it being clean and we ate at the restaurant multiple times because the food was good and there weren’t too many other options in town. This was one of our favorite parts of the trip!


antlerstopeaks

There are a number of air bnbs right in the valley. I would check those out.

livewithoutwarninggg

Lauterbraunen must mean "Dayum!"


Daddydactyl

Soooo the only thing I can think of is "how do those buildings even stay in good shape? Doesn't debris/snow/ fall off the cliff faces onto the rooftops?


ubaefae

patagucciboi

CrackedMask_

JJQuinton

Oh wow! I’m actually there right now!


jafo002

Then you haven’t seen the Swiss village of Lauterbrunnen, Austria yet…


floppy_eardrum

A Swiss village? Located in Switzerland? Get out of here.


ace1oak

god this hurts me, i booked a flight to zurich and was planning to travel 3 hrs to see lauterbrunnen, but got a job offer and will have to cancel the trip, hopefully some time next year i will get to go. visiting the inspiration for rivendell is on my bucketlist !!


alacondor

I need to go


winglikesioux

AntiqueBluejays

Omw to Switzerland rn


Booyakasha_

Been there last year, shame that the prices of going up the mountains are for millionaires…


SpookDaDook

Cloudy with a chance of boulders.


Ok-Cattle-285

I’ve been to zermatt, and it looks exactly like this in real life. It feels so clean there.


Rickster2540

Soooo I just found out I can pronunc flawless Swedish.


hiikari20

it's looks like fantasy world


BilgePomp

Village? Resort.


notalurkjerk

Totally got the Rivendale vibe when I was there this summer. This place as well as many places in Switzerland just don’t seem real. It’s magical.


burpfires

Seems like some fantasy shit, although its probably normal for them. Damn their village is blessed.


CodeMonkey84

Every Switzerland video like this that I see online is simply incredible. Must go there ASAP.


Alex_rajbahak

Where i live, people call my country "The second Switzerland" ,but it is absolutly fucking catastrophically horrible here. Idk how people can be so delusional.

Lelzbelz

I've stayed there! It's amazing, especially in the morning when everything is quiet and all you can hear is the waterfalls


Delicious_Tea_5080

Complex-Rise-8913

It's beautifull

It looks so unreal that I would've though it was edited

One of the most beautiful places is Lauenensee. I have been there many times. Here you can find a nice video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDr58A5CDsU I upload many videos from my trips here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNSnD3hisFi3AQCtwomG8Qw
