Bern

The historic old town of Bern is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. This includes the dreamy alleys, the numerous ornate fountains, the famous Zytgloggeturm and the over 100 m high Münsterturm. The Aare River winds around the city in a U-shape. The city's more than 6 km of arcades are popularly called "Lauben". The Federal Palace of the Swiss government belongs to the capital of Switzerland like the view from the Rose Garden over the roofs of the old town and into the Bernese Alps.

“As already mentioned, the facilities, the animals and so on are great! The restaurant loses a point: the food was only lukewarm, and I find CHF 17.50 for one hamburger (meat and bun) too expensive! If you also want chips or salad, that costs another CHF 3.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My first-ever paragliding experience in Interlaken, Switzerland, and it was absolutely amazing! 🇨🇭🪂 The views were breathtaking, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. A huge thank you to my awesome pilot, Tinu, for making me feel safe and comfortable the entire time. He was friendly, professional, and made the whole experience so much fun! And of course, my “George Clooney look-alike” pilot 😂 Definitely one of the highlights of my Switzerland trip. I would 100% do it again! Danke schön, Tinu! ❤️”
