A glacier is a large mass of ice that moves slowly over land due to its weight and gravity. Glaciers are formed from compacted snow over time, and they can shape landscapes through erosion and deposition. They are found in polar regions as well as mountainous areas around the world.

What does Switzerland smell like?

I'd say it depends where you're at... I've only been once to switzerland and we were always surrounded by the magnificent nature, I'd say it smells like the woods. When we went to the cities (zurich and bern) it smelled fine, my nose never had to smell any funky odors! Also the lakes smell great! they're so clean and the water has this beautiful glaciar-blue color.


What is Difference between glaciar valley and river valley?

A glacial valley is formed by the movement of glaciers, which carve out deep U-shaped valleys with steep sides and flat bottoms. A river valley, on the other hand, is formed by the erosion of flowing water over time, resulting in V-shaped valleys with narrower bottoms and less steep sides. Glacial valleys generally have a more pronounced U-shape and are wider compared to river valleys.
