Genève’s Jet d’Eau
One of Genève’s places of interest is the 140m jet d’eau in the lake. Tourists can use a small walkway to go there to get wet. Along this way one can sit / lay down on this looong bench, enjoy the sun and a good view to Genève.

Super Rabbit
Near Zurich Airport is a place which is called “Oberhäsli” which is Swiss German language. If you translate that 1:1 it means super rabbit. I guess the rabbits, super or normal also like this calm place… …with a nice view into the corn field with red flowers.

The Bench and the Tractor

It is not located at the famous Zurich Lake but this lake is also very nice, surrounded by mountains (what else would you expect in Switzerland 😉 And she found an assembly of red benches on a sunny Saturday afternoon.

Andermatt gabione bench
