The Swiss voice in the world since 1935

Rocky soul

Markus Bühler photographs the countryside and people in the Gotthard region.

Many tourists to the region don’t realise that there is more to the Gotthard than a traffic barrier – it is also surrounded by a quiet and strange beauty. Bühler’s pictures come from between Hospental and Biasca. (Gotthard, the rocky soul of Switzerland, AS-Verlag Zurich, 1997).
