International Museum of the Red Cross and Red Crescent

The museum covers many historical events of human all over the world, from generation to generation. Worth to visit!

Geneva is a very international city, with many international organizations headquartered in Geneva, probably due to Switzerland's neutral status. Several ceasefires and truce negotiations were held in Geneva, which seems to be synonymous with "peace." Geneva does feel calm and gentle, probably because it is a Saturday holiday and a morning pedestrian is not much. The headquarters of the International Red Cross is built on a high slope and there is no half-slick luxury in appearance, but it is the center of global relief and charity activities, and countless refugees and victims of war and natural disasters have been helped by the International Red Cross. The Palais des Nations is a famous building in Geneva, the headquarters of the United Nations Office in Europe, and a line of thousands of flags represents his status. There is a famous sculpture in the square opposite the Palais des Nations. A giant wooden chair more than ten meters high broke a leg and stood in the middle of the square with three legs, which was very eye-catching and enough to stimulate people's curiosity. It is a memorial sculpture created by the 1997 FIPD calling attention to the harm caused by landmines in war. It reminds people of the importance of war to harm peace, and it is perhaps the contagious power of art that stops war and cherishes peace should become the common voice of mankind.

The pattern on his flag is the opposite of the Swiss flag because he was created by the Swiss. It didn't open on Monday and couldn't go in and visit, but it was a pity! Just look outside and take pictures.

As part of the Geneva Passage, we visited the Red Cross Museum and were very impressed. The way the museum is built makes it easy for everyone to access it and provides interesting and comprehensive aspects of what the Red Cross has done and continues to do around the world. It is a very important organization.

There have been many years of introduction, pictures and objects about the Red Cross. Outside may be relatively ordinary, plain and unadorned, but inside is still worth seeing, rich content, detailed information (with Chinese explanation), good.

Beyond the entrance to the Palais des Nations, the museum is built on a hillside with a striking high profile, which is in sharp contrast to the excessive low profile of the Palais des Nations. Tickets are not suitable for Swiss tourist passes and need to be purchased separately.
