Trip to Geneva 🇨🇭

It was a trip to Geneva, Switzerland. Just to share some of the places that I have visited. We explored the St. Pierre Cathedral upon arrival. It is a historic cathedral dating back to the 12th century, known for its archaeological site and stunning panoramic views from the towers. 📍Place du Bourg-de-Four 24, 1204 Genève 💰 Free entry, CHF 5 for tower access We also visited Place du Bourg-de-Four and Maison Tavel. We explored the oldest square in Geneva, Place du Bourg-de-Four, and visit Maison Tavel, a museum showcasing Geneva's history. 📍Maison Tavel - Rue du Puits-Saint-Pierre 6, 1204 Genève We then strolled along Lake Geneva and Jet d'Eau. Lake Geneva is one of the largest lakes in Europe, and the Jet d'Eau is a famous fountain and symbol of the city. 📍Quai Gustave-Ador, 1207 Genève Besides, we also went to International Red Cross and Red Crescent Museum. It is a museum dedicated to humanitarian work and the history of the Red Cross. It was very interesting and worth to visit. 📍Avenue de la Paix 17, 1202 Genève 💰CHF 15 for adults If you are looking for a restaurant for lunch, I would recommend you to check out the Chez Philippe, a chic steakhouse in the city center. We ordered Swiss beef steak 🥩 and tartare which was so delicious 🙌🙌🙌 💰CHF 30-60 per person 📍 Rue du Rhône 8, 1204 Genève We also visited Palais des Nations and Parc des Bastions. The European headquarters of the United Nations, followed by a visit to Parc des Bastions, home to the Reformation Wall. I would recommend you to take the guided tour so that you are able to understand the place and history better. 📍 Palais des Nations - 14 Avenue de la Paix, 1202 Genève 💰Guided tour at the Palais des Nations: CHF 15 We also visited Restaurant Le Chat-Botté. It is a fine dining restaurant with a Michelin star, offering exquisite French cuisine. We tried the Seasonal tasting menu which was very unique and delicious ❤️❤️❤️ 💰CHF 100-150 per person 📍Quai du Mont-Blanc 13, 1201 Genève Besides, we also explored Jardin Anglais and Flower Clock. A picturesque park along the lake with Geneva's famous Flower Clock. 📍Quai du Général-Guisan, 1204 Genève After visiting the park, we vsosited a restaurant nearby, Brasserie Lipp. It is a lively brasserie offering traditional French and Swiss dishes. We ordered their signature Zürcher Geschnetzeltes (veal in cream sauce). It was very good and the waitress working in the shop was very nice. 💰 CHF 25-50 per person 📍 Rue de la Confédération 8, 1204 Genève Last but not least, we visited Patek Philippe Museum. A museum dedicated to the art of watchmaking, showcasing a collection from the 16th century to the present. Out all the the places, we like this the most as it was very interesting and manage to gain a lot of history knowledge as well 🥰 📍Rue des Vieux-Grenadiers 7, 1205 Genève 💰CHF 10 for adults #europetrip #trip #vacation
