The 9 Best Things to do in Hollande, Canton of Geneva

October 19, 2021 Deane Carmody

The shores of Lake Geneva have attracted visitors and invaders for millennia. The cheerful city of Geneva sits on the lake's western shore, lofty snowcapped peaks creating a gorgeous backdrop on all sides. The city is perfect for exploring on foot; rent a bike to venture further. The top of any itinerary should be visits to Geneva's lakefront and its famed water fountain, the Flower Clock in the English Garden, St. Peter's Cathedral, Reformation Wall, Place Neuve and the birthplace of the U.N.

I was on a Suisse Romande concert in Victoria Hall, the conductor was Jonathan Nott and I enjoy Haydn and Beethoven music there. I bought the cheapest ticket, this was only 10 CHF, but I could enjoy the athosphere of the barock Victoria Hall enterior and fantastic music. Try it, if you travel to Geneva!!

Standing inside this gilded theater helps you understand the theory of “art for the sake of art.” This theatre is a metaphor for something more grandiose than I’m able to create – considering I’m just standing with my mouth agape. Perhaps it’s something that will take years to sketch, paint, and dry in the imagination. But at least it’s there in the memory bank. The play? Oh, I’m not so sure I remember. That intermission though… My date took a long walk in the rain for cash so we can buy champagne. I stand like a top, my head looking high to the goddesses on the ceiling while my body spins in place. Hundreds of people have crowded, surrounding this heavenly display of angels and saints in bright colors covering every inch of ceiling. This is the closest to heaven I’ve been, and I imagine these deities are keeping watch over the arts, where they should be.

AlpyBus

Reviewed By liiswiiz

Me and my husband used the AlpyBus shared transfer service over our snowboarding trip to get from the Geneva airport to Megeve and back. They informed me of the exact departure time the day before via e-mail and SMS. Their service desk was easy to find the airport and the staff was helpful. The minibus fit our snowboards and luggage easily, and this was all included in the very affordable ticket price. The bus drivers were careful on the mountain roads and also very polite to the passengers. They weren't able to take us exactly door-to-door due to an unexpected road closure, which wasn't a big deal, since we were a few minutes walk away from our place of accommondation. The bus driver personally apologized for this small inconvenience and helped us with our luggage. We contacted AlpyBus via e-mail to agree on a different meeting point for the trip back, to which they responded quickly and everything went smoothly.
