Top tips for Melbourne to Geneva
Explore Lake Geneva
Melbourne might be a coastal city, but inland Geneva has its own spectacular waterfront. Located on the banks of the stunning Lake Geneva, there’s plenty to discover around its shores. Hire a bike and explore the local countryside, take a water taxi to a nearby town or simply marvel at the huge Jet d’Eau fountain.
Visit Jardin Anglais
Otherwise known as the ‘English Garden’, the beautiful Jardin Anglais dates back to 1854 and, much like Melbourne’s Royal Botanic Gardens, it’s one of the city’s must-sees. It’s home to one of Geneva’s most iconic attractions, the colourful Flower Clock. Measuring five metres in diameter and made up of 12,000 flowers, it’s a tribute to the city’s watch-making history.
