most magnificent moment/artwork in public display. Come in late fall when the leaves change.

Chapel Bridge in the Rain: A Different Kind of Beauty 🌧️🌉Visiting Chapel Bridge in Lucerne on a rainy day wasn’t the fairytale scene I had imagined, but it had its own charm. The mist over the river, the soft raindrops on the wooden bridge, and the glow of the city lights reflecting on the wet cobblestones made it feel almost dreamlike. Even in the rain, this historic landmark had a quiet, timeless beauty—just with fewer tourists and a more peaceful vibe.#Lucerne #ChapelBridge #RainyDayAdv

Old Town

旅の径
Lucerne, one of the top 5 tourist cities in Switzerland, has sparkling waters on one side and lush mountains and rolling peaks on the other. The city area north of Lake Lucerne and the Reuss River is called the Old Town of Lucerne, where you must slow down and stroll and take photos leisurely. Stroll along the shore of Lake Lucerne, take photos on the Capel Bridge, climb the Musegg Wall to reminisce about the past, visit the St. Leodegar Church, and check in at the Lion Monument... everything is done on foot.

Lake Lucerne

Lake Lucerne is really good, when the weather is good, you can see the snowy mountains. Unfortunately, we stayed for three days, and the weather was good when we arrived in the evening on the first day, and we haven't cherished it yet. The buildings by the lake, the Ferris wheel, and the Huaqiao Water Tower make people's eyes simply can't see it. The boat ride to Weggis is even more beautiful.

Great museum and most importantly very interactive. You can learn, admire, experience and watch so many things. If you want to learn everything and really like watching and reading a little, 3 hours is far from enough. We had about 4.5 hours and that wasn't enough.

I feel that the scenery in Switzerland is very weather-dependent. When the weather is good, it is absolutely beautiful! When the weather is bad and the fog is heavy, you can't see anything clearly. We went there on a rainy day. When we first arrived at the mountain, we could still see some scenery, but after a while, the fog came and we couldn't see anything. There are many ways to go to Mount Rigi. You can take the volcano to the mountain train, or the boat to the mountain train. When going down the mountain, you can change the train to the cable car and then take the boat. If you come out from Lucerne, the transportation connection is good, and it takes two hours one way. With a Swiss pass, you don't have to spend money on transportation throughout the whole journey. By the way, there are stones transported from Mount Emei on Mount Rigi, you can check it out.

There were many chocolates on sale at reasonable prices, and it was fun just to look at them. There was also a model of a factory where you could see the manufacturing process.

Zurich Cathedral has many highlights, covering many aspects of architecture, art, history, etc. The following is detailed introduction: Architectural characteristics - Twin Towers landmark: The twin towers of Zurich Cathedral are recognized landmarks in Zurich, the tower was built in the 13th century, The neo-Gothic spire was built between 1781 and 1787 by Johann Caspar V ögeli and Johannes Haggen mille, and the towering twin towers are particularly eye-catching from afar, becoming an important part of the city skyline. - Romanesque style: The main body of the church is Romanesque architecture, with heavy walls, semicircular arches and vaults, showing the calm and solemnity of Romanesque architecture, spacious interior space, giving a sense of solemnity. Art Treasures - Stained glass: The choir windows created by Swiss modernist Giacometti are brightly coloured and beautifully patterned. There is also a series of new windows created by Sigmar Polk after winning the competition in 2005, adding a modern art to the church. - Bronze gate: built by Otto Monk, there are two groups. The south gate was completed in 1935-1938, depicting the scene of the Reformation; the north gate was completed in 1950, depicting the scene in the Bible, the characters are lifelike and the craftsmanship is exquisite. - Church organ: The organ, made by Nipomuk Kuhn in 1876, was replaced by the Metzler organ in 1960, with a beautiful sound, a professional organ training venue and a variety of musical events. History and Culture - Meaning of Reformation: In 1520, during his tenure at the Cathedral in Zurich, Ciyunli began the Reformation in the German-speaking part of Switzerland, and in 1523, the local authorities approved the church's severance with the Pope, making the church the birthplace of the Reformation in the German-speaking part of Switzerland. - Historical monuments: The church’s catacombs are the oldest, built from the late 11th to early 12th centuries, and contain old faded murals depicting the patron saint Felix and Ricula. - Related museums: The church has a religious reform museum, showing the historical background, process and impact of the Reformation, and the seminary of the University of Zurich, which is an important place for studying religion and theology. Viewing experience - Karta Tower: The tower is close to the Limat River, and visitors can climb 187 steps to the top of the tower, and experience narrow and winding stairs and wooden platforms along the way. The Limat River and the Alps in the distance have a panoramic view.

If Switzerland is not expensive, it is basically impossible to say that there is no beauty. Rusen is the beauty in the beauty, the location is in the middle, sitting on a large beautiful lake, Mark Twain is not stingy. Lake Yusen may not want the green beauty of alpine ice and snow lakes, but the old town and the surrounding beautiful towns can always surround her beauty, adding up to be more beautiful.

Musegg Wall Lucerne

The Museg wall is very historic. There are nine watchtowers on the wall, three of which can be climbed up. Google Maps can accurately guide you below the watchtower you can visit. After climbing up, you can overlook the whole city.
