Little Bar in a small corner of Zermatt

2 Mar

Travel introduces us to many new sights, some that we may be familiar with and some that we come across unexpectedly. While its fun to experience the things that are known, I believe that it’s the sights and situations that we unexpectedly stumble upon that adds to the adventure of the holiday.

On our first night in Zermatt, despite the weather and the cold, we decided to head out and explore the Zermatt night life. We visited a few bars that were recommended to us, but they all opened much later in the evening. Hence we decided to enter this small bar that was in a basement and all we could we see from the road was the sign that said “Little Bar”.

We entered and realized that it was named aptly i.eLittle Bar as it was quite small, but what we immediately loved and I wanted to share was the interiors. Everywhere that we could see there were currencies / notes from all over the world. Every country that we could think off we saw the currency. There was even a Rs 500 note from India.

I am sharing a few pics from our visit. I have taken these pictures from their website as our pictures are very poor due to the poor lighting 😦

      Thanks Nia and I found it so much more inviting and friendly than a lot of big famous bars

        Your post is a good reminder not to try to hit the spots that are well known but instead to just give oneself permission to explore the places that seem inviting.
