Best Switzerland Attractions: Tours & Tickets

Geneva’s most treasured tourist spot is the Geneva Water Fountain, better known as the Jet d’Eau, one of the tallest fountains in the world. The Geneva Water Fountain was not originally designed to be a tourist attraction, though. Its creation as a hydraulic plant during the 19th century was to meet the city’s rapidly growing water requirements. It was observed that due to the shutting of the valves, the water pressure increased dangerously and risked serious damage to the turbines. A valve was created to ensure the release of said pressure, eventually leading to the birth of this unmissable wonder!Timings: 10:00 AM to 04:00 PMEntry Fee: No entry feeLocation: Quai Gustave-Ador, 1207 Genève, Switzerland

Kapellbrucke, also called Chapel Bridge, is one of the most impressive attractions in the Swiss town of Lucerne. It is a covered wooden bridge standing across the Reuss river, built in the 14th century, and is considered to be the oldest wooden bridge in Europe until it was destroyed in a fire in 1993. The Chapel Bridge was restored by rebuilding it to its original elegance, which features 100 pictures hanging from the rafter, depicting life in Lucerne during the 17th century. Along with a 13th-century water tower Wasserturm, once a part of the city fortification. Kapellbrucke is a landmark site in Lucerne and the most photographed as well, which gives it a spot on the list of places to see in Lucerne.Best time to Visit- June - SeptemberEntry fee- Free
