Buildings surrounded by glaciers can't be reached here by taxi! You have to walk for six hours. If you are as adventurous as me, let's find out!
This is The Monte Rosa Hut, whose Chinese name is Monte Rosa Cabin. It is located in the Zermatt Iceberg in the Alps. This is a snowy mountain paradise in many people's minds. Does it look like a crystal diamond embedded in the top of a snowy mountain?
It's a five-story wooden structure, and it looks like a spirit that absorbs sunlight. You can see the beautiful scenery around 36 here. If there is an opportunity, I'd like to go here and sigh.
The reason why it takes six hours to walk here is because in Switzerland, in order to protect the natural ecology, motor vehicles are no longer allowed in Zermatt. If you want to come, you need to transfer to a small train at the foot of the mountain. Generally, the small train runs about half an hour, which takes about half an hour. If you are afraid of too many people, you can come in the off-season. Zermatt's off-season is in April.
If you want to come here for a break, remember to rent the crampons first and fix them on your shoes, so that you can walk on the glacier.
The highlight of the hut is, of course, hiking on the glacier. As the ancient Chinese saying goes, "There is another village with a bright future". Can you see the location of the hut in Montrosa in the snow?
didn't see it? Then I'll show you. See this top view? It is right there.
after six hours' trekking, you can see the hut.
The exterior is an aluminum shell with silver texture, which looks very strange and irregular, and looks very futuristic. Of course, what can match its futuristic sense is its high technology. More than 9% of the energy in the hut is self-sufficient, and it can recycle water and generate electricity by solar energy, so there is no need to worry that it will appear lonely here.
It has many high-tech means. Take recycling water as an example: firstly, it is used for kitchen; secondly, it can be used for washing and watering flowers after being filtered in the microbial system; and after being purified again, it is toilet water, which is also the third water use.
People come here to live in an endless stream. One person can stay in 63 yuan for one night. This place is an open space, and more than a dozen people live in one room. It must be a unique experience.
The cottage has been renovated several times, starting at the end of the 19th century, and it can only accommodate 25 people.
Then it was expanded in 1925. As you can see, the design based on wood structure has been determined here.
ten years later, it was expanded again.
Its interior is all made of wood: wooden tables and chairs, wooden partitions and decorations. Compared with the cold and steep mountains and rivers outside, it is particularly warm here.
When you enter the cabin, you can put down your heavy luggage on this shelf, put on comfortable slippers and start enjoying the beautiful scenery.
After going upstairs, this is a public area, which provides convenience for travelers coming and going, and also provides a communication venue for everyone, surrounded by strangers, and you can exchange foreign cultures and feelings with them, and talk about their common interests and unique experiences.
The glass design of the exterior wall makes the night in the snowy mountain look particularly romantic. The glass hut blends with the night, leaving this circle of warm yellow lights alone, which makes the space particularly warm and bright.
are you full of longing for the Monte Rosa cabin when you see it here? If I have the chance, I really want to see the scenery of the snow-capped mountains and see the thousands of miles of ice and snow drifting in Wan Li.
