Rick Steves' Europe
Switzerland's Great Cities
Season 5
Episode 505
In this episode, we’ll focus on an often-overlooked side of Switzerland -- Luzern, Bern, Zurich, and Lausanne. Enjoying the country's urban charms, we'll get some exercise, from ringing a very big bell to doing a little river rafting—without the raft. We’ll also enjoy a variety of eye-opening art, from Chagall and Klee to pieces created by inmates of an asylum.
