Bern is a city that surprises with its quiet elegance and rich cultural offerings. Start your visit in the Old Town, where 6 kilometers of arcades make it one of the longest covered shopping promenades in Europe. As you walk, you'll encounter the Zytglogge, the famous 13th-century astronomical clock tower, and a series of colorful fountains, each with its own story.

Head to the Bern Minster, the city’s towering Gothic cathedral, and climb to the top for stunning views of the rooftops and the distant Alps. Just a short walk away, visit the Federal Palace (Bundeshaus), the seat of the Swiss government, where guided tours offer a peek into the country’s unique political system.

Nature lovers will enjoy a peaceful stroll along the Aare River, or a visit to the Bear Park, home to the animals that gave Bern its name. Art enthusiasts shouldn’t miss the Zentrum Paul Klee, a striking modern museum dedicated to the famous Swiss painter.

Whether you're into history, politics, art, or just soaking up relaxed charm, Bern offers something for every traveler.
