Not many cities have managed to retain their historic features quite as successfully as the Swiss capital of Bern. The Old Town has been entered in the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Bern also boasts the longest sheltered shopping promenade in Europe and is where medieval pearls stand alongside modern architecture and the word’s first Einstein Museum. The City of the Bear with its new BearPark is the ideal base to discover the whole of Switzerland. Bern’s Mt. Gurten offers spectacular views across the Alps and the Emmental. All those beautiful places that seem to beckon from a distance are accessible as pleasant journeys. Bern is a transport hub with perfect air, road and rail links.
