Important reasources in Switzerland?


What are some?
And what is a site where i can see some?

The most famous resources Switzerland has are its mountains, beautiful landscapes, lakes and clean cities.

Another important resource for the country is water in reservoirs, from which electricity is produced in case the nuclear power plants and the river power plants can't produce enough (this is mainly in winter time). here's a list with all Swiss dams (there are pretty much, partially with a picture)

But the most important resource is invisible - the brainpower (Switzerland has pretty good schools). This is very important for a country that has no commodities.

microtechnology, hitech, biotechnology and pharmaceuticals, as well as banking and insurance know-how

The ability to recycle

Well, if you are going to visit then you might want to travel around and stay in Youth Hostels.
Two resources:
Boats (on the lakes) and trains (CHF 355 for a month, all inc.)
and Hostels for when you need a sleep(CHF 33 per night HB)
