Berne is the capital of Switzerland and one of its leading commercial centers. Situated on a picturesque rocky bluff, Berne is surrounded on three sides by the Aare River, a tributary of the Rhine. The heart of the city is its Old Town, a centuries-old historic district. The city's medieval architecture is astonishingly well preserved-in fact, Berne is the only Swiss city honored as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site. Among the city's landmarks are a 15th-century cathedral, the beloved medieval clock tower, and four miles of historic arcades-one of Europe's longest shopping promenades.
Centrally located in Switzerland, Berne offers a convenient base for day trips to the beautiful lakeside resorts around Interlaken and Lucerne. A 30-minute drive brings you to the Alps; full day trips are possible to Zermatt, the Matterhorn, and other destinations among the peaks and glaciers.
