Annecy: A Dreamy Water City at the Foot of the Alps

While Geneva isn't typically a destination for extended stays compared to other Swiss cities, its strategic location on the border between Germany and France offers flexibility. Besides Carouge, which we mentioned previously, you can easily reach French border towns like Annecy and Yvoire by car or boat. Lake Annecy, surrounded by the Alps, is known as the "Venice of the Alps." Walking through medieval arcaded streets and bridges, and along the canals, you'll find numerous cafes and restaurants. When you're tired, you can simply sit down and enjoy the scenery. It's a truly relaxing experience. While you're here, don't forget to visit the century-old ice cream shop, Glacier des Alpes. Their homemade cones paired with ice cream are simply delicious! Overall, if you enjoy the feeling of exploring Europe at your leisure, I highly recommend spending a day in Annecy when you're in Geneva. Whether you're enjoying the breeze by the lake, finding a casual cafe, or strolling the old town's bridges and cobblestone streets, you'll feel like your trip isn't just about checking in, but about immersing yourself in the city's rhythm. @trip.com_tw Download the Trip.com app ➜ Search for "FamilyTravel" on the homepage ➜ View recommended family trips and exclusive deals! #tripFamilyTravel #WhereToGo #EuropeTravel #FranceTravel #FrenchTown #EuropeanTown #Annecy #annecyfrance #france #europetravels
