The 30-kilometre vineyards of Lavaux along Lake Geneva in - TopicsExpress



          

The 30-kilometre vineyards of Lavaux along Lake Geneva in Switzerland are not only a bountiful gift of nature but are also testament to centuries of grueling human toil. For generations, winemakers have terraced these steep hillsides, building stone walls to protect their vines.It is said that these vineyards benefit from suns rays thrice --: when it shines from the sky, when it reflects off the lake, and finally at night when its warmth absorbed during the day radiates from the vineyard walls. Photo of this vineyard was clicked by me during a cruise on Lake Geneva three years back.
