Visitors to Switzerland should never lose track of time. The skyline of every city, town, and village is graced by slender towers with ornate clocks, many with golden hands and numerals.
TOP (from left): The tower of St John’s Church, Disentis, an alpine town near the head of the Rhine Valley; the clock on a quaint old lodging tower in central Zurich; the tower of the village church at Rueras, near the Oberalp Pass.
