The Matterhorn and the edelweiss are both iconic symbols of Switzerland. One of the most famous mountains in the world, the Matterhorn is located in the Valais Alps on the border between Switzerland and Italy. It is known for its distinctive pyramid-shaped peak and is a popular destination for mountaineers.
Edelweiss (Leontopodium alpinum) is a small, white, star-shaped flower native to the Alpine regions of Europe. It is often associated with the high mountains, especially the Alps. This flower has become a symbol of rugged beauty and is known for its resistance to harsh environmental conditions. The word 'edelweiss' comes from German and means 'noble white'.
Edelweiss is a protected and rather rare flower due to too much picking in the past, so it is important to preserve and protect it in its natural habitat. It is also used in traditional folk medicine and is sometimes used in cosmetics and skin care products.
Both Matterhorn and edelweiss are symbols representing the beauty and majesty of Swiss mountains and nature.
