Geneva is
situated in the center of central Europe, making it very
easy for travelers to work the city into their
itinerary. Often the location of international treaty
conventions, it is very cozy thanks to a low population
of 180,000 people.
The city is divided by the River Rhône into the rive
gauche and rive droite. The rive gauche holds most of
the sights with visitor interest, including the Jet
d'Eau, a 400-foot geyser. It would be difficult for a
city to be more alpine than Geneva. Set on the banks of
Lake Léman, the city looks out onto the snow-capped
peaks of the Alps and Jura mountains jutting out of the
deep forests and mystical countryside.
Jet-set style seeps from the shores of the lake thanks
to the romantic walk lined numerous shops, restaurants,
and hotels vying for the best storefronts. In fact,
Geneva offers over 1,100 restaurants to set your taste
buds into overdrive.
Of course, Geneva is also a terrific cultural
destination with over 30 museums, theaters, galleries,
and even an opera house.
For those looking to add a little adventure to their
vacation, Geneva offers nearby slopes for world-famous
skiing and numerous golf clubs in and around the Lake
Geneva Region.
The city's proximity to France and Italy add to its
appeal for travelers trying to make the most of their
European vacation.
