Crash-Landed in Iseltwald and It Was Absolutely Worth It

Confession: I came to Iseltwald for the K-drama feels, stayed for the breathtaking lakeside views.

Tucked away near Interlaken, Iseltwald is a tiny lakeside village in Switzerland that got a little global spotlight thanks to the hit Korean drama "Crash Landing on You." If you’ve seen the show, you’ll probably recognize the iconic pier scene where Ri Jeong Hyeok plays the piano by the lake. And let me tell you... it’s even more magical in person.

Iseltwald isn’t packed with attractions or bustling streets. But that’s the charm. You walk. You breathe. You stare at the water. You feel like you’re floating in your own soft-focus drama scene.
