One of iconic sights in Geneva. The sheer power and height of the water jet are impressive, and it…read morelooks amazing from almost anywhere along the lake. Up close, the mist is refreshing (and you will get a little wet), which honestly adds to the experience. It's free, easy to access, and perfect for a relaxing walk along Lake Geneva. The views of the water, mountains, and city together are beautiful, especially at night when the fountain is lit up. Great for photos and just soaking in the atmosphere.

Our day in Chamonix Mont Blanc was absolutely unforgettable. I honestly have no words, it truly…read morefelt like stepping into a storybook. Every angle had breathtaking views of the mountains, and it was one of those places where you just stop and take everything in. We loved walking around and exploring the little shops, each one adding to the charm of the town. The scenery was stunning everywhere you looked, with the mountains making the whole experience feel surreal and peaceful at the same time. It was such a beautiful day, and easily one of the highlights of our trip.
If you like to ski or hike Chamonix is your kind of place…read more Some of the most insane slopes I have ever skied. This time we finished up the TDMB at Chamonix ( as do most hikers). Sure it is pricey and touristy...but dam it is cute and romantic. Plenty to do and see. Highly recommend the $75 pass that gets you the train ride to the glaciers, the needle gondola to the glaciers, and the high speed lift on the other side for hiking.....it will keep you busy all day and you will be able to hike on a Glacier. Bucket list place.
Such a cool concept. We had to check these out but had no idea what to expect. Fortunately a few…read morelocals pointed Us in the right direction and we were able to check out a bit of the passageway. Unfortunately, we had a stroller so transversing all of those stairs wasn't possible for us.

Les Canuts (ouvriers en soie) quittent alors leurs locaux insalubres des bords de Saône et s'installent dans les immeubles conçus pour contenir les imposants métiers à bras. Le quartier sera en 1831 et 1834 le théâtre des violentes insurrections des Canuts. Aujourd'hui, le marché alimentaire, la vogue aux marrons, les bistrots authentiques et les places où l'on pointe la boule lyonnaise contribuent à en faire un haut lieu de tradition. S'il compte peu d'édifices majeurs, le circuit de traboules constitue un patrimoine original. Le plateau est plus un quartier de jour, calme, que les pentes de la Croix-Rousse qui vivent plus la nuit, dans des ambiances alternatives, associatives et festives.

Also, they had some interesting Portuguese specialties like Bacaloa. Only a block off the waterfront and well worth it!
My first time at RCL after hearing so many good things for many years. Well' I'm happy to report…read morethat RCL lived up to all my expectations. Pleasant service by the waiter and owner. Two of us started with the salat mixta--impressive mix of greens and pickled and fresh veggies. Other co-pilot started with the arugula and parmesan salad. That, too was excellent. For mains, two if us had the risotto frutti de mar while other had the filet de perche with frites in the butter-cream sauce. The risotto portion was large and was just what I needed after a day on the slopes--nice assortment of seafood in a tomato base. I had a bite of the perch and it too was excellent (i will order that when I return). No deserts for any of us, but I had an excellent calvados while my friends were given, free of charge, a lemonchello. It's not cheap, but it's very good AND it's open on Sunday b

A favorite that's hard to trade in for an alternative is their penne Siciliana -- gooey cheese...perfectly cooked pasta...tasty tomato sauce and a little kick of spice at the end to keep you honest. If I'm feeling healthy, I'll start with a melee or arugula salad. Portions are good-sized for all options so either plan to carbo-load or skip a few meals before going so you can *enjoy* it all. Some day I'll have to take the leap and try their other pastas (the bolognese / carbonara / lasagna all look amazing) and pizzas -- I have no idea what the tables next to me ordered but it's taking every ounce of willpower to keep from reaching over and asking to taste a slice!! This little spot by the train station will always have a warm spot in my heart and I will absolutely visit whenever I can. Hopefully it will continue to be here years from now so my niece & nephew can be part of the experience as well!

Yelp Review 2026 #135:…read more Switzerland has a lot of water fountains. Some plain and some more ornate. Kindlifresserbrunnen is the most interesting I've seen. It's an ogre eating children carrying a sack with more children. The ogre is the equivalent of the Boogeyman meant to scare children from misbehaving. It was originally a fountain made of wood in the 1500s and was called Platzbrunnen. In 1666, the wooden fountain was replaced by this fountain called Kindlifresserbrunnen or "Fountain of the Eater of Little Children". It's a free thing to see. There are shops and restaurants nearby and it's close to Zytglogge so, it's not out of the way. Bern has plenty of interesting fountains. Be sure to check them out especially this one.
