Reaching the end of winter, it's time for carnival or Fasnacht in many towns of usually Catholic cantons. Carnival in Switzerland is mainly constituted of parades, amazing costumes with masks and talented musicians. The Swiss population take the carnival very seriously and it is told that some carnival groups practice the whole year long to give the very best of themselves. This celebration is repeated in a different town every weekend, some companies completely shut down to participate in these parades and the drinking is continual.
