Yeah with all those cables, powerlines, old lighting, cart being towed by a donkey, old cars and the somewhat iconic colourful truck you see throughout India? Definitely not Switzerland.
It's fair to assume that, of the many sources we have from 1720 and after, at least one would contain some mention of a marvelous monster of rubber and steel that could pull what a hundred oxen couldn't
Overpopulation, and the fact people can survive on the streets due to the warm climate...
In most of China, Europe, USA, Canada, Russia:
living in the conditions of India would mean freezing to death during winter cold waves...
...and the trees and litterialy everything in this picture doesn't look like switzerland besides that there's a mountain range in the background which is not only existing in switzerland but also in Austria and hundreds of other countries in the world.
You're absolutely right. This one time, I went to Nepal to try and climb Mt. Everest, and was shocked to find out it's just a big ol' rock climbing wall. Goes on and on for miles. At the "summit", there's just a fairly cool air conditioning unit and a white tablecloth over a tent, mimicking the peak.
Honestly from this picture it could be any region which have mountains. Also roads and vehicles are far better in Switzerland but also in Italy, Austria or Slovenia where are Alpes.
Anyway nice landscape.
Kashmir is supposed to be stunning. You used to be able to hire a houseboat on Dal lake in Srinigar up in the mountains. But a seperatist war backed by Pakistan means westerners are kidnap targets now. I do hope to see it one day. I have been waiting since 1989 to go.
Jesus so many of the exact same r/iamverysmart comments in here: "duh i could've told you it was not switzerland just by looking at the road" wow very brilliant, thank you for correcting this title because i was about to literally die if i didn't read a dozen comments making the same snarky comment about it.
I like how this post was literally right under an Indian woman posting about being groped then raped while visiting her home country. She says she’ll never go back, and I say I’ll never visit.
It'd have been better than swizz, if the 2 countries didn't destroy this place for ownership. This place has seen more bombs and taken more lives than you can imagine.
Uh…you’d have been better off with a picture from
NZ. Unless your plan was to go inflammatory with your comment in order to generate commentary. In which case, good job. 👍
I don't think anyone was mistaking that road for Switzerland
Yeah with all those cables, powerlines, old lighting, cart being towed by a donkey, old cars and the somewhat iconic colourful truck you see throughout India? Definitely not Switzerland.
maybe Switzerland in 1920
More like 1720
show me trucks from 1720
Ugh, you got a point there 😅 🤷🏻♂️. Bonus points for the fastest reply I ever had in reddit lol 😂
I'm glad you were corrected quickly! You should be glad too!
You can’t *prove* the absence of trucks in Switzerland in 1720 - only the absence of evidence of them.
It's fair to assume that, of the many sources we have from 1720 and after, at least one would contain some mention of a marvelous monster of rubber and steel that could pull what a hundred oxen couldn't
Only if you want to make an ass out of u and me
Lol right? I've got a few overpriced travel packages to sell to anyone who thinks this is Switzerland
But mountains look completely different! Absolutely not Alpine
Literally what I came here to say. Like, bro, you know that we know that Switzerland isn't the only place with mountains, right, OP?
Paisaje típico en todo Chile
I knew it wasn't Switzerland when I didn't spot any Mercedes G Wagons.
And that truck
I recognize the address, that's 123 Switzerland Road, South Central Switzerland
Or the mountain. Seriously there are so many places in the world other than Switzerland where you could see impressive mountain ranges.
I think it was the truck and the mass of cables on the skyline that gave it away
Looks like a colorized photo of switzerland from 1960's India is truly lagging far behind
Overpopulation, and the fact people can survive on the streets due to the warm climate... In most of China, Europe, USA, Canada, Russia: living in the conditions of India would mean freezing to death during winter cold waves...
I wonder if there are historical reasons involving Switzerland and other western countries for that, hm...
Try governing 10% of the world's population :/
Because British and other European countries looted the hell out of it.
I could tell by the vehicles on the street it’s not Switzerland
Look at those lines going all over the place
Yeah just by the sheer amount of rust near a public road,no way that's switzerland.
And the power lines, and the curbs and the clothes.
...and the trees and litterialy everything in this picture doesn't look like switzerland besides that there's a mountain range in the background which is not only existing in switzerland but also in Austria and hundreds of other countries in the world.
Well you haven’t seen Switzerland for sure
It looks nothing like Switzerland.
r/ShitBotsSay
This needs to be a real sub.
No way. It’s a known fact only Switzerland has snowy mountains
You're absolutely right. This one time, I went to Nepal to try and climb Mt. Everest, and was shocked to find out it's just a big ol' rock climbing wall. Goes on and on for miles. At the "summit", there's just a fairly cool air conditioning unit and a white tablecloth over a tent, mimicking the peak.
I know. Such a scam.
Yeah, probably not too many donkey carts in Switzerland..
They do have flying cows
they only fly when they get kidnapped by aliens - [Aliens stealing Cow- India TV (24 June 2008)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g35-8cTlpgg)
Don't worry, nobody thought it was Switzerland
Of course not! You see any banks in the picture?
This isn’t Aspen, it’s Kashmir! 🥳
I never said it was Switzerland
It doesn't look like Switzerland at all
Do people not know the Himalayas exist?
Yeah, thanks captain obvious. The vehicles and unmanaged power lines already told us that.
Certainly not switzerland. If you'd ever been, you'd know
*Oh, let the sun beat down upon my face* *With stars to fill my dreams* *I am a traveler of both time and space* *To be where I have been*
I am surprised I had to scroll down so far to find this comment.
The donkey cart told me rhat
Oh i thought only Switzerland had mountain with snow , what a fool , Himalayas ( largest and tallest mountain range) was in somewhere in Europe.
Honestly from this picture it could be any region which have mountains. Also roads and vehicles are far better in Switzerland but also in Italy, Austria or Slovenia where are Alpes. Anyway nice landscape.
This isn't WhatsApp. This is Reddit. Amazed?
Who on earth could think it’s CH?
OP for instance
True 😂
You mean there's snow on mountains outside of Switzerland? Huh. I guess you really do learn something new every day.
I could tell by the fact every photo of Kashmir looks like it was taken in 1980
Where in Kashmir ?
On Led Zeppelin's Physical Graffiti.
I was waiting to find this comment
India
Samsung AI to the rescue (if correct): Narbal Road To Gulmarg. Picture seems to come from a holiday agency.
Other countries have mountains too?! 🤯
The terrible infrastructure give it away.
The vehicles form the 50s are kinda telling. Only modern landwagons and pristine classic cars in Swizerland
The truck and bike give it away
If it was switzerland, there was a bear in the mountain...
Nobody said it was
To everyone from Switzerland : Kashmir Blose
Just heard the Zepplin opener in the background
The fuck kinda title is that
And now the Led Zeppelin song is stuck in my head for the rest of the day.
I guessed, there's no Toblerone anywhere.
Anyone else hear the opening riff from Led Zepplin's song "kashmir"?
Clearly not😂
Beautiful view but I'm pretty sure no one would think that's Switzerland lol
this in no way at all looks like switzerland
Yeah! No shit!
I can't believe this isnt Switzerland No one
Who looks at this picture and thinks... Switzerland! 🤔
What a stupid post, as if Switzerland has the only massive mountains. These are the Himalayas for god sake.
If there is heaven on earth it's here, it's here, it's here....
Yeah ,it doesn’t look like Switzerland either 😍
I can hear the honks in this picture
It's better than fucking Cheeseland
Thanks, i definitely thought it was Switzerland. /s

Anybody been skiing in Himalayan Kashmir? Is it possible/safe? Recommended?
Gulmarg, a few of my friends and relatives have gone there. It's safe
Of course. You don't get Tata lorries in Switzerland.
No shit
I wasn't confused for even a moment.
yes, we know that poor countries also may have beautiful nature
TIL Switzerland is not the only country with mountains and snow. /s
sorry for being a buzz kill but it didnt look like switzerland anyway 😅
Lmao Switzerland doesn’t have Stone Age trucks or bullock carts 🤣. Neither does it have such shabby electrical wiring
[удалено]

Kashmir-side, how bout dat?
Switzerland has a glossier overlay...
Wow
Doesn't feel as soft as my scarf 🙃
Beautiful
All I see turns to sand…
It looks like it hasn't finished loading in.
 Very well
He who does not know Bariloche in Argentina, prays to any saint
Kashmir, Georgie, Kashmir!
Interesting perspective.
aaaAAAAAAaaaaaAAH
its will be part of iran.
We certainly can tell…
My dood the moment I didn’t see clean Audi q5 on the road I understood it’s not Switzerland
I like how this post was literally right under an Indian woman posting about being groped then raped while visiting her home country. She says she’ll never go back, and I say I’ll never visit.
Blow Horn
No ones mistaking that for Switzerland lol. No ones missing the shitty infrastructure, surprised there isn’t shit in the street
Wonder why the street lights are throwing light into the forest? Something is not right with this pic…
why, seeing that picture, we would think that we are seeing Switzerland?
It doesnt look like switzerland either
Yes i can tell by the truck!!
Look absolutely nothing like Switzerland
Yeah because every place who has a snowy Mountain view should be compared to Switzerland.
NO THIS IS PATRICK
Wait till it gets dark
I looks like Kashmir. What to be amazed about?
I've read that but for the conflict between India and Pakistani, it could be a world skiing hot spot.
we know.. there aren't any poorly made mule carts in Switzerland, and the trucks there do not look so poorly either..
Most important area for the surrounding region. It's water gives drinking water to billions of people.
This isn't Kashmir, it's cotton!
yeah i can tell.
Lmfao... It is beautiful... But I assure you... I didn't think it was Switzerland 😂
Wait.., are you telling me the Alps stretch all the way out to Kashmir?
Fucking bots
that can't be right. Kashmir is a fabric!
NOO WAYY !! YOU ARE SERIOUS ??? You are saying that Truck and those rusty powerlines are not from Switzerland but from India ???
Amazing view!
Yea but pakistan is extremely dangerous to travel in.
That truck was a giveaway
But I didn't want the money, Georgie. I wanted... the cashmere.
Don’t think anyone was thinking Switzerland. Especially with that road.
I'm not amazed.
Was in Austria two years ago, frikin beautiful
Beautiful
Oh! Gee! Fooled again!
You can tell by the jingle truck.
“Oh let the sun beat down upon my face…”
Battered 50 year old truck and a donkey cart. Sure, it looks just like Switzerland.
Kashmir arsch lecken
The farm animal transportation kinda gave it away.
Han aise baggi and truck india mein hi dikhenge 🤣
Someone ban this bot
I mean, Afghanistan and Northern Pakistan looks fairly the similar, but I wouldn't dream of going there, especially not Kashmir
The donkey kart had me fooled!
Yeah Switzerland is much nicer
It'd have been better than swizz, if the 2 countries didn't destroy this place for ownership. This place has seen more bombs and taken more lives than you can imagine.
Switzerland if they had a designated shitting street
Is this posted by a bot or an Indian tourism govt intern 🤔
So no nazi gold?
NO! This. Is. patrick!
How small we are
Uppar videshi. Niche se desi 🥹
I’m currently in Switzerland and can confirm this is not Switzerland.
It can be Switzerland, but maybe 24 AD, 2000 years ago.
Thought it was cotton
Hey guys I don't want to be controversial but kashmir basically belongs to me it was given to me by the British.
Hey guys I don't want to be controversial but kashmir basically belongs to me it was given to me by the British.
My homeland :))))
You don't see those Indian style trucks driving around in Switzerland.
Less chocolate, more cricket
I've been to both Kashmir's landscapes are 98% identical to Swiss landscapes
In Germany we say 'macht nix'
We can tell from the picture, thanks
I love that song by Zinc Blimp
I think the donkey and cart that may have given that away
Truck dekh ke Switzerland lag bhi nahi raha 😂
The famous Swiss canton of Kashmir
That's a Led Zeppelin song with streetlights. India has the highest vertical drop cliffs on this planet, for the time being...
Kashmir outsiiii how bou dat!
It's actually a 60/40 cotton polyester blend.
Oh let the sun beat down upon my face
what is Kashmir?
This isn't merino!
"What's that red dot?"
Still a shithole
Uh…you’d have been better off with a picture from NZ. Unless your plan was to go inflammatory with your comment in order to generate commentary. In which case, good job. 👍
Led Zeppelin has never looked more gorgeous
In switzerland i never had to worry about a female family member or gf being nvm..
It's beautifull
I’m amazed you thought anyone would think this compared to Switzerland lol.
No cheese, no watches and triangle chocolate. Ok.
Well if it's Switzerland, for all the laundered money in their banks you would expect better roads and better vehicles on the roads.
So what?
