Lucerne, the gateway to Central Switzerland, encompasses all the merits of Switzerland - the city, the lake, and the mountains. The city is home to numerous historic sights such as the medieval Chapel Bridge, the fortified wall of Museggmauer, and picturesque squares lined with ancient houses, museums, and theaters. The numerous cableways offer nearby excursions into the mountains of Rigi, Pilatus, and Stanserhorn. Alternatively, visitors can discover the scenic lake on a paddlewheel steamer or motor vessel.
