BERN (Switzerland) CUENCA (Ecuador)

This is the capital of the beautiful country of Zwitzerland, it is located in Canton Bern, in the west of the north of Zwitzerland. The climate here is changeing depending on the sesson of the year (winter, spring, sommer or fall). The language in Bern is the swiss german, but most of the people speak high german too, Zwitzerland is divided in 4 regions, the german, french, italian and romanish; so in each part they speak each language. It is not the biggest city in Zwitzerland, and also is not the most important, but i think is the most beautiful and interesting, because it has 2 large rivers that cross the city, it has interestings medieval buildings, museums, 1 zoo, nice coffee and bar places, and a huge cultural thing to show to the people in different times of the year. No less this city is one of the UNESCO's Cultural World Heritage. The atractions of Bern are its medieval clock tower best know as cu-cu clock, its biggest gotic cathedral, the roses garden, the parks, and show the bears. Also it has a large calendary of festivals around the year as it is the "fastanacht" or carnaval in english, the chritsmas market, "frauenlauf" in english women's race, many theatres, exihibitions or musical shows like jazz. The life in all Zwitzerland is nice, the cities are very very clean, the people are not so friendly as they usually are in other places of the world but once they opened they are wonderfull people. The living there is good, the currency is one of the world's expensives, it is the swiss frank, Switzerland is not part of the European Union, so they are very good economic and lifestyle. They have very good education, everysingle people can speak at least 2 languages. The gastronomy there is very nice, they eat a lot of potatoes, cheesse, chocolate (Zwitzerland is the land of cheesse, chocolate, cu-cu clocks, watches and poket knifes) Bern and all the country are acting for saving the world, most of the people rides a bike for going to school, work and everything, most of the families have 1 car or they don't have one!, another reason for this is that they've a good method of transportation, like trains and buses.
Comparing with Cuenca, i think they are both beautiful, they both have amazing places to show the people and the world, they are both Cultural Worlds Heritage named by the UNESCO, they both have good gastronomy.
As they are similar also i think they have big differences, like the order or cleaning with the streets, the type of transportation, the climate, the language, and the lifestyle.
I choose Bern, because i made my exchange year in Zwitzerland and my home was near Bern in a little town called Alchenstorf; so i spend a lot of time in Bern, going shopping, partying, spending time with friends, knowing the city. So i really felt in love with Bern and Zwitzerland, so i wanted to exchange ideas of it to you.
