Davos 2016? An afternoon in the Swiss alpine town

Domenica 24 Gennaio 2016Durata: 3 min 31 sec

??? ???? ???? ? ?? ??? Davos has long been a favored destination for skiing?... particularly among the rich and famous. But in January? it?s especially busy as heads of state? business leaders and politicians gather at the World Economic Forum. Does that mean all work and no play? Earlier in the week?... we reported on the town of Davos itself?... today our Kim Min?ji reports on what you can do when you have a little time on your hands. When the World Economic Forum kicks off in the Swiss alpine town of Davos?... the population triples from 11?thousand to some 30?thousand people. It?s when hotels get jam?packed?... and it?s almost impossible to find an empty room?... especially an ?affordable? one. But even when the annual event is not on?... Davos is still pretty busy as it?s home to one of Europe?s biggest ski resorts. So I took a few hours to see what the town has to offer. ?When visiting another country? you can?t leave out the food. So I?m here at a restaurant in Davos?... where I?m going to try out two of the most famous local dishes.? The raclette is the name of the type of cheese and the name of the dish itself. The cheese is melted and served with potatoes? pickled pearl onions and cornichons. Another popular meal is fondue. It?s a dish where two or more cheeses are combined with a bit of white wine and melted to gooey? delicious liquid. Then you use your long skewers to dip crusty bread into the cheese. Now that we?re nice and full?... we venture out into the snow. And just about everywhere you look? you find people in snow gear? carrying skis or snowboards ?Usually when you think of skiing?... you probably imagine powdery slopes. But here in Davos?... it?s common to see people skiing on flat terrain.? It?s ideal for beginners? so you see people of all ages?... but the high plateau and side valleys in Davos make it a popular spot among cross?country skiers. ?This okay for me I do it for pleasure. It?s a special technique for skiing. This is classic running.? In addition to cross?country skiing? Davos is famous for regular skiing?... and it?s often dubbed a ?winter playground of the rich and famous?...? with A?list celebrities? business leaders and royals regularly traversing the slopes. But you can?t leave out what you can see from the mountains. ?Davos is the highest town in Europe? meaning that you are treated to one of the best views on the Swiss Alps.? From up here? you can see the main venue for the World Economic Forum as well as a nice view of the whole town itself. ?It?s a gorgeous view for sure. What brought me up here? Well? I was at the forum and it was just really busy and we were stuck inside for quite a bit and I just thought I couldn?t leave Switzerland without seeing the mountain tops here.? So? instead of rubbing shoulders and talking business the whole time during your stay?... take some time to relax and enjoy everything this alpine town Visit ?Arirang News?
