That initial thrill of his Ice Palace Jungfraujoch, Switzerland. We had stopped for a moment watching a long corridor of ice that seemed no end in sight. While in the middle of the tunnel suddenly chest tightness. Being in the mountains with an altitude of around 3,000 meters above sea level may be our lack of oxygen.

We then slowly down the tunnel a height of about 2 meters, with a floor of about 1.5 meters wide. A few minutes at the end of the hall space ice looks like a rather large cave. On the walls there are a number of ice sculptures, ice sculptures one Sherlock Holmes, the detective character in the stories of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. From the cave, the journey continues through the ice again until the end of the tunnel in a door connecting to another tunnel. Well, (thankfully) this other tunnel is not a tunnel of ice time.

 Waw ...a relief. Although less than tenth minutes in the ice tunnel, strong sensation imprint. Moreover, when given information about the Ice Palace, which is said every year some part of the cave was moving about 15 centimeters.

Still imagine how two carriages bearing brown Jungfraubahn slowly moving through the rail down the jagged mountains.

The journey continues through the Eiger mountain belly and stopped Eigerwand at an altitude of 2865 masl. About five minutes, tourists were allowed down enjoying the view of the snow-covered cave just on the edge of the glass cliff of Mount Eiger.

From Eigerwand, continue traveling down the dark alleys penetrate the inside of the mountain and back Monch paused eismeer station. As in Eigerwand, here too there is a hole through the cliff cave. From behind the glass, we see the valley and the hills are covered in a hardened chunk of ice in various forms.

The journey continues through a dark tunnel. At approximately 12:30, the train stopped at the door of the cave into the gate that connects the station with a building built right on one of the cliffs of Mount Jungfrau.

In addition to a spacious walled glass, the building is equipped with an intentionally designed restaurant at the edge of a mountain cliff. That afternoon, with a group of pilgrims from the Sherlock Holmes Society of London, we enjoyed lunch at a restaurant on the Jungfraujoch.

 
After lunch, we were brought up using the lift to the highest point on the Jungfraujoch at an altitude of 3571 masl, a weather observation station towering buildings, with the top of the dome-shaped. The place is named Sphinx. A patio is built right into the side of a cliff overlooking the Jungfrau peak. Standing on the terrace is aware we are in the highest civilization of the world untouched. Moreover, the weather that day was really sunny. Eternal snow (Aletsch Glacier), which stretched across the mountains into the most amazing scenery.
