"Lucerne" in English, is Switzerland's tourism capital. Situated on the edge of its namesake lake, Lucerne provides visitors with easy access to the Swiss Alps and the surrounding region of Central Switzerland. With a charming old town, a pair of historic wooden bridges, a plethora of museums, and a famous weeping lion, there's much to see and do in Lucerne.
