| Good to Know | Sils is said to abound in natural earth energy, or life force and that you can even measure it. By why bother, when you are bewitched anyway by the magic of the landscape at first sight? Writers such as Nietzsche, artists like Beuys and musicians including David Bowie all drew inspiration from the wide-open spaces here and the magical light. Idyllically located between two frozen lakes, the village also stands at the entrance to the romantic Val Fex. |

| Top News / Special offers summer | Sils is a place overflowing with life force. That can even be scientifically measured. But why bother when you are anyway guaranteed to fall under the spell of the landscape as soon as you see it? Writers such as Nietzsche, artists like Beuys, and musicians such as David Bowie drew their inspiration from the impressive wide open spaces and the magical light here, and they played a considerable role in establishing Sils as THE cultural centre of the Engadin. |
