Today will be our last day in Austria , we will be making our way to the 2nd part of our holiday in Switzerland. From Innsbruck to St.Moritz is about 5 hours, first we will take a 2h30m train from Innsbruck to Sargans , then transfer to another train for about 20 min to Chur (Switzerland) and finally another 2h train from Chur to St. Moritz. We left Innsbruck at 15:48 and we only reach St.Moritz at 20:58 !
Since we had some time to kill before our train in the afternoon , we check out early and visited
HOFKIRCHE : The Emperor's Tomb and
Imperial Palace (Hofburg). By around 10:30 am we already completed both places and was deciding if we should still visit some other places of interest in the city or should we venture out to the
Swarovski Crystal Worlds. In the end we choose to visit the Swarovski Crystal Worlds which is about 30 min by bus from the city. There is a shuttle bus that runs between Innsbruck and the Swarovski Crystal Worlds 4 times a day at
specific timing OR you can take bus 4125 to Wattens Kristallwelten/B171, think have to top up some fares with Innsbruck card (can't really remember now ) then walk about 7 min to the Crystal world.
We spent about 1 hr + here and we actually find it quite interesting as they have different theme room. We do find it a bit bit rush as we need to make sure we get back in time to collect our luggages from the hotel and then get on the train to St. Moritz.
We will be staying here at
Hotel Soldanella for 2 nights , it's about 15 min walk from the main train station. By the time we reach it was almost 9 pm , lucky the small kiosk at the train station was still open as all supermarket are closed and also the next day is sunday which all supermarket will not be open as well ( off peak season) . So after check in , we just cooked our dinner and rest for the night cos we are booked for the Bernina express to Tirano in the next morning.
