Photography Tips
If you have never been in that area, I definitely suggest you to go there by the Bernina Express, a train connecting Sankt Moritz, Chur or Davos in Switzerland to Tirano in Italy by crossing the Swiss Engadin Alps. For most of its journey, the train also runs along the World Heritage Site known as the Rhaetian Railway in the Albula/Bernina Landscapes.
Simply amazing.
