A sparkling, placid lake. White-capped mountain peaks. The distinctive plume of the Jet d’Eau fountain. Your first view of Geneva will take your breath away. This Swiss city is home to the United Nations and the birthplace of the Geneva Convention, a true international capital. Wander the cobbled streets of the Old Town, cruise the scenic waters of the Rhône River or tour the halls of CERN, whose famous particle accelerator helps scientists understand the building blocks of the universe itself. No matter where your travels in Geneva take you, you’ll feel a sense of history and global importance at every turn.
