Bergün, Switzerland 2005

The beautifully painted buildings in this hamlet of 550 which features a cow parade daily thru the streets. Think Norman Rockwell with a Swiss twist. Bergün (4515 ft.) – the location in the 1990s for the filming of the TV series "The Director" had already been in the spotlight before, in 1952, when the first Heidi film was filmed in the nearby village of Latsch. The heart of the village, with its picturesque Engadine houses – lavishly decorated with sgraffito, frescoes and oriel windows – an 800 year old Romanesque church and a Roman tower, is amazingly unchanged.
