The Old Town

The Notre Dame cathedral built around the old quarter lausanne, overlooking the whole city from the church in front of the platform. And around the church has a vibrant commercial street, lined with all kinds of famous brand shops and cafes, can slowly along the winding alleys around and take your time.

There are obvious differences from the old town of Zurich, Lucerne and so on, and it feels like the town has a less chanting style, and the buildings and plans of the neighborhood are more French. Some high points overlook the important sites, including the cathedral.

The old town of Lausanne is quite different from Zurich and Geneva due to the topography. Therefore, the structure of the mountain city makes people feel a sense of superimposed layers We went all the way downhill from the hotel to the railway station. The various European buildings on both sides are not high but very delicate The most favorite angle is the church with a steeple that I saw when I went to the top of the fast mountain, and the subway that often shuttles under the bridge is very FEEL

Beautiful cathedral in the old town of Lausanne, from here you also could see the Geneva lake and the mountain in France across the Lake.

The city can be divided into two areas: the lakeside is a leisurely, modern, life-conscious temperament; the old city on the hillside is a nostalgic, ancient architecture, it exudes the historical connotation of the charm. The city is beautiful, many famous European writers such as Byron, Rousseau, Hugo and Dickens have lived here one after another, so Lausanne is also called "the international cultural city."
