A lovely little town where we were lucky enough to spend one night. The waterfall is magnificent, especially during the day. When the sun sets behind the mountains, the view is less impressive. Lots of tourists. We took the funicular up to Wengen and then to Mureen.

Honestly, Shawarma Al-Kufia is one of the best shawarmas I've ever tried! 🔥😍 The taste is unique, the meat is tender, and the seasoning is amazing. On top of that, the service is very classy and respectful. 👌❤️
