Interlaken is a town and municipality in the Interlaken-Oberhasli administrative district in the Swiss canton of Bern. It is an important and well-known tourist destination in the Bernese Oberland region of the Swiss Alps, and the main transport gateway to the mountains and lakes of that region. The town is located on the Bödeli, between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz, and alongside the Aare river that flows between the two lakes. Transport routes to the east and west alongside the lakes are complemented by a route south into the mountains following the Lütschine river. The blazon of the municipal coat of arms is ''Argent a Semi Ibex rampant couped Sable langued Gules.''〔(Flags of the World.com ) accessed 8 February 2012〕 ==History== Until 1891 Interlaken was known as ''Aarmühle''.〔 The convent of the Augustinian Canons was built around 1133 when it was mentioned as ''inter lacus Madon'' and lasted until 1528. The mill on the left bank of the Aare river was first mentioned in 1365 as ''Amuli'', while the town on the right bank was mentioned in 1239 as ''villa Inderlappen''.〔 Previously, printing, textiles, and to a smaller extent watchmaking were also of importance, but today tourism is the most significant source of income. Interlaken is one of the oldest tourist resorts in Switzerland, and it remains one of the most popular. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Interlaken」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
