The fourth Monday of November every year is a big day in Bern - the Onion Festival! "Zibelemärit" (Onion Market) is one of the most grand and lively festivals in Bern every year, and onions are dressed up today! 
More than 50 tons of onions are the absolute protagonists today. Admire the red and white onions carefully woven into onion wreaths of various shapes, taste various onion foods (onion pie, onion soup, onion pizza, onion sausage), and buy cute little toys made of onions. If you encounter someone throwing confetti at you or hitting you on the head with a plastic sledgehammer, don't be surprised, these are ancient customs of the Onion Festival.

UNESCO - Bern Old Town

Historic buildings

行耀

The beauty of Bern lies in the veins of its ancient buildings, in the cracks of its cobblestone streets, and in the history that unexpectedly appears at every turn. It is not only the capital of Switzerland, but also a living medieval museum. In an unassuming street corner arcade, I stumbled upon Albert Einstein&#39;s former residence, built from 1903 to 1905. The Bern Clock Tower is one of the most famous landmarks in Bern&#39;s Old Town, Switzerland, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built in the 13th century, its dial displays not only the time but also the day of the week, month, constellations, and moon phases. It&#39;s incredibly detailed. At every hour, the tower&#39;s miniature figurines&mdash;a rooster, a bear, a knight, and more&mdash;start to ring and rotate.

BearPark

莲子99

To be honest, there are not many bears in the bear park, especially if you travel during the National Day holiday, because it is a free open-air attraction, and the bears may be pulled back to the room. This is not a park, but a big pit. Here you can see the surrounding scenery, especially the small river and bridge.

Clock Tower - Zytglogge

我不是李亚鹏

The Bern Clock Tower is the oldest building in Bern. When Bern was built in the 13th century, it was used as an entrance and exit connecting Bern to the outside world and was the gateway to Bern. The little man in the tower will rotate and come out of the gorgeous clock tower to tell the time 4 minutes before every hour, attracting tourists to stop by. The charming shape, numbers, clock face and astronomical clock are architectural masterpieces that were not officially completed until 1530, and the exquisite mechanical craftsmanship in the 13th century inside is amazing.

Rose Garden

Su0725

it&rsquo;s best place to view the old town.  also you can walk down for few minutes and it&rsquo;s connected to the old town by a bridge. I heard there is a 🐻 park but I didn&rsquo;t go

Einstein House

Museums

Many tourists who come here for Einstein may be confused here. The gray brick building is very Swiss and has no special features. However, if you look up and take a closer look, you will find that Einstein&#39;s former residence is hidden here. Now his former residence has been renovated into a memorial museum, but it still retains the characteristics of the past and shows his former living style. Including the old furniture, wallpaper, tableware, etc.
