Nature and culture

Jardin Anglais, an English-style garden, is a great place to go for a walk. According to locals, it’s the liveliest park in the city. If you visit Geneva in summer and the weather’s hot, the baths at Bains des Pâquis are a wonderful place for a swim. If you would like to take in more culture, visit St. Pierre Cathedral or the fairytale Château de Chillon on the outskirts of the city. By the way, did you know that Geneva has over 30 museums?

Curated for you

NATURE

The world’s most compact city wraps around the south-western tip of Lake Geneva. With the eye-catching Jet d'Eau (Fountain of Geneva) in the middle, the lake fascinates and entices. Stroll along the quay past the marinas, the English Garden and neoclassic hotel façades, or sail across the lake, taking in views of the Mont Blanc, vineyards and castles.

ARTS & CULTURE

Happily situated in a park overlooking Lake Geneva and bordering both Switzerland and France you can find the Palais des Nations — symbol of the shared heritage of the international community. As a visitor, you can stroll through the lavishly decorated conference rooms where legendary agreements have been signed and milestones have been achieved in human rights, world health and peace.
