Destinations in the movie 'Crash Landing on You'

"Crash Landing on You" has many scenes filmed in Switzerland, which in the past three years has become a famous tourist destination, attracting visitors from Asia, including Vietnam.

Responding to reader Ha My about the destinations in Switzerland that appeared in the movie Crash Landing on You, Ha Nguyen and Thuy Anh, who have checked in at all the destinations in the movie, and some members on the European Discovery Travel forum with more than 446,000 participants, shared some experiences.

The itinerary will start in the town of Interlaken, central Switzerland, and end in the city of Zurich. The journey to the locations in the movie "Crash Landing on You" can be summarized according to the locations and directions below.

Interlaken is not a major gateway city so you will usually have to go through Zurich/ Spiez/ Basel/ Bern or Geneva in Switzerland before arriving here. If you are coming from further away, you can take a train or plane from France, Germany, Austria, Italy...

Sigriswil View Bridge

The bridge connects the village of Sigriswil with the village of Aeschlen on the north side of Lake Thun, about 20 km from Interlaken. The two main characters had met by chance many years earlier on this bridge.

You can take bus 21 or boat from Interlaken to Gunten. The bus ride takes about 30 minutes, the boat ride takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes. From Gunten, you can take bus 25 to Sigriswil. Another option is to take bus 24 from Aeschlen to Oberhofen. This town has many beautiful castles, so if you have time, you can visit more.

If you plan to walk around the Sigriswil-Aeschlen area, it is worth stopping by the tourist office in Gunten for more information.

First (also known as Grindelwald First)

First is a small mountain in the Jungfrau region. The nearest town to First is Grindelwald. This is where the heroine took a photo of the hero with his ex-girlfriend and also a scene at the end of the movie when the heroine parachutes and the two meet.

If you want to paraglide, you can fly from First to Grindelwald. If you don't want to fly, take the cable car down to Grindelwald. "You should spend about 2 hours here. Return to Interlaken in the evening," Ha Nguyen advised.

Iseltwald village and Lake Brienz

Lake Brienz is where the male lead Hyun Bin plays the piano. This is considered one of the most famous and romantic scenes in the film.

From April 27, visitors to the village of Iselwald will no longer be able to take photos freely at the pier on Lake Brienz. Village officials have installed two turnstiles at the entrance and a nearby public toilet. Visitors who want to take photos will have to pay 5 francs (over 130,000 VND) and 1 franc (over 26,000 VND) to use the toilet. Note that the boat on Lake Brienz does not run in winter.

From Interlaken, take the boat or bus 103 to Iseltwald. The bus ride takes about 20 minutes, the boat ride about 45 minutes. From Iseltwald, take the boat to the village of Giessbach. If you have time and energy, you can walk (about 1 hour and 30 minutes) then go to the Grandhotel Giessbach and visit the Giessbach waterfall nearby.

"Check the train schedule to Interlaken carefully because there are few trains there," Ha Nguyen advised.

After arriving at Lake Brienz, visitors can conveniently stop by the Grandhotel Giessbach, located in the village of Giessbach, south of Lake Brienz. This is where the male lead studied and also where the two main characters briefly met.

Lake Lungern

Lake Lungern is located on the route from Interlaken to Lucerne. This is the final scene of the film where the two main characters are now married. They live happily in a wooden house overlooking the lake in a peaceful atmosphere.

In the morning, take the train to Lungern and walk along the lake. For those who have more time, you can bring a picnic and eat while watching the lake like the two main characters. Then, around 12 noon, take the train to Zurich.

There are two locations in Zurich that appear in the film. The first is the Münsterbrücke bridge, which connects the two churches on either side of the river, the Fraumünster and the Grossmünster, right in the city centre.'

You can also go to Lindenhof Hill. The Lindenhof Park is an ancient monument located on a hilltop overlooking Zurich and the Limmat River. This is a great view of the city. The two main characters "passed" each other in the past moments. The image is not in the main movie, but appears in the trailer and introduction of each episode.

In Zurich, from the central station, you can easily walk to the Münsterbrücke bridge according to Google navigation. This bridge connects the two churches on both sides of the river, Fraumünster and Grossmünster. From here, visitors can walk to Lindenhof Hill.

Ha Nguyen recommends that for this itinerary, the most convenient is to rent a car and only buy a single ticket to the mountain (Kleine Scheidegg, First). However, if you do not drive, you can absolutely use public transport as above. You should buy a 3-day Bernese Oberland Pass (220 CHF) or a Saver Day Pass (1-day) if you buy early.
