It is pronounced as Yungfrovyak. You take the first train from a station called Lauterbrunnen. If you have been to Ooty by train from Mettupalayam you will remember that the train takes about 5 to 6 hours to reach a height of 5000 feet +. Here you are taken up to 11782 feet in just one hour. The first train takes you to Eigerwand which is 9400 feet high. There you get down and change to another train. Most of the remaining height is crossed by tunnels cut through the snow peaks. Once you reach Jungfraujock Railway station - they have constructed a Tower which is above the Mountain peak. You can go there by a High Speed Lift. This is the most beautiful part where the entire Swiss Alps is below you - you can see the mountain tops and the clouds. The temprature is Minus 12 Degrees. 
The cow is the favaourite animal of the Swiss people since they produce enormous quantities of Milk, Cheese & Chocolates
