HDP Developer: Enterprise Apache Spark I Training Course in Switzerland

Switzerland, or officially known as the Swiss Confederation, is a federated country of central Europe. Because of its linguistic diversity, Switzerland is known by a variety of native names, such as Schweiz, Suisse, Svizzera and Svizra. While Bern is the administrative capital, Lausanne is the judicial centre of Switzerland. Zurich, Geneva and Basel are bases of some important international organisations such as the WTO, the WHO and FIFA. The country is well-known for its high welfare; Switzerland has the highest nominal wealth per adult.

Alongside the beautiful scenery, tourists visit Switzerland for the country's cultural attractions. There are many museums, galleries and historic buildings within popular cities such as Zurich, Geneva, and Lausanne. One of the most popular things to do is a train journey to the Top of Europe; Jungfraujoch. The longest glacier in Europe, the Great Aletsch Glacier begins at Jungfraujoch, and is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
