PARTNER CONTENT FOR GENEVA TOURISM
Geneva SWITZERLAND
Geneva enjoys an exceptional setting, on the shores of Switzerland’s largest lake and at the foot of Europe’s highest mountain, Mont Blanc. Geneva offers the perfect city break for those
who like the finer things in life. Elegant boutiques and department stores line the Rue du Rhone, the main thoroughfare in the city’s relaxed, crowd- free shopping district. In fact, Geneva has the world’s greatest concentration of mono-brand luxury boutiques per square mile. The city also has a well-deserved reputation for
art, as evidenced by the presence of prestigious auction houses such as Sotheby’s and Christie’s. With around 60 galleries and 40 museums, Geneva is host to a high-quality array of exhibitions throughout the year. Among the city’s most fascinating museums
are the International Museum of the Red Cross and Red Crescent, International Museum of the Reformation, Bodmer Foundation and Patek Philippe Museum — the latter offering a memorable trip through 500 years of watchmaking history. The Museum of Modern
and Contemporary Art (MAMCO), meanwhile, is the place to go to admire a fine collection of contemporary art. Cultural highlights aside, Geneva revels in its
spectacular natural setting. The surrounding alpine landscape and natural beauty gives tourists a genuine feeling of peace and wellbeing, something that inspires many of the city’s luxurious spas and wellness treatments. But for visitors looking to experience the great outdoors, natural immersion is just a short bus ride away. The spectacular Mont-Salève, for example, is easily accessed by cable-car and offers a choice of hiking, paragliding, mountain biking and even cross-country skiing in the winter. Oeneophiles, meanwhile, can discover the
Geneva wine trail — Switzerland’s longest vineyard walk — which winds its way through the beautiful countryside. And no trip to Geneva is complete without exploring the food scene. The gourmet capital of Switzerland, Geneva has no fewer than 55 restaurants that are recognised by either Michelin and/or Gault & Millau.
Don’t miss The Jardin Anglais, which is filled with ornamental flower beds and offers incredible views of the 459ft-tall Jet d’Eau fountain
