Geneva

Geneva Travel Guide

Resting on the southwestern tip of Lac Léman (Lake Geneva), Geneva is the cosmopolitan, graceful soul of Switzerland's French-speaking territory, a high-profile crossroads of wealth, influence, and cultures from around the world. Rolls-Royces purr past manicured promenades, and grand mansarded mansions stand guard beside the River Rhône, where yachts bob and gulls dive. The combination of Swiss efficiency and French savoir faire gives Geneva a chic polish, and it is home to some of the world's most luxurious and exclusive stores and extravagant restaurants.
