Lucerne’s charm is legendary. Around Lake Lucerne, modern art and culture intersect with a charming Old Town.Your first glimpse of Lucerne might just make you swoon. With quaint buildings set around the glacial blue waters of Reuss river and beautiful mountains standing guard nearby, Lucerne is easily one of the most beautiful little cities in Europe – if not the world. The gabled Chapel Bridge snaking across the river is considered the oldest covered wooden bridge on the continent, and seeing it lit up at night with reflections shimmering on the water below is particularly charming. Churches and town squares lined with frescoed houses stud the city, and amid the old buildings the architecture of the Culture and Convention Centre stands out as a highlight.
