On the banks of Lake Lucerne you’ll find one of the most visited places in Switzerland. Lucerne is an alpine playground with a beautiful city, lake and mountains. It is a city of culture with museums, theatres and festivals, and you can easily spend a couple of days here meandering around the churches, small streets, and plazas. Not to mention the lake and the bridges.

Check out the big clock and water tower, and ‘The Dying Lion of Lucerne’ - one of the world’s most famous monuments which is situated near the oldest gift shop in town (according to the sign).
