Flowers of the Alps - A Look into a colorful World

The Alps are one of the most diverse natural landscapes in Europe. The mighty mountain chain rises from the Cote d'Azur of the Mediterranean, stretching from west to east and separating Europe into the cooler north and the sunny south along 1200 kilometers before it sinks back into the Pannonian Plain south of Vienna. Across this wide arc, a fascinating world of mountain peaks, wide valleys, and diverse landscapes stretches through seven countries. Because of their size and important geographic location, they are a unique mountain region with a fascinating biodiversity. Today, the Alps are among the most popular tourist destinations in the world, and the names of the amazing rock formations of Mont Blanc, the Matterhorn, Grossglockner, or Zugspitze are known to everyone.
