Lausanne

Lausanne, my favorite city, encompasses everything you could want – magnificent Swiss Alps views, serene lakeside locations, museums, dining, shopping, and beyond. Numerous vantage points capture the city’s charm, along with a scenic old town adorned by one of Switzerland’s most beautiful cathedrals. It’s a gateway to exploring towns along Lake Geneva, like Montreux and Vevey, and charming cities like Fribourg and Bern. My tip for families is the Aquatic Vivarium, where you can observe a Komodo dragon and the world’s deadliest snake.
