Día de Todos los Santos

📣 Notas para viajeros

Switzerland is a highly affluent, mountainous country known for its neutrality and high standard of living. Expect punctuality, adherence to rules, and robust privacy laws. English is widely spoken, but local language efforts are appreciated.

• Public holidays are regulated at the cantonal level and may vary greatly.
• Commonly observed public holidays include New Year's Day (January 1st), Good Friday, and Easter Monday.
• Swiss culture highly values cleanliness, integrity, organization, and discretion. Always obtain permission before taking photos or recording others. Punctuality is extremely important; being late is frowned upon. On Sundays, many businesses are closed, and noise should be kept to a minimum. While making requests, use polite circumlocutions (e.g., "please"). When interacting with locals, it is best to learn and use basic phrases in the local language.
