Geneva & Lake Geneva
A fountain shooting water a hundred and forty metres into the air off the edge of the lake, vineyard terraces along the shore tended the same way since medieval monks planted them, and Mont Blanc visible on the clear days as a reminder of where the money in this city likes to ski.
The best time to visit Geneva & Lake Geneva is May–Sep, when typical daytime highs reach about 26°C (79°F). Local time there is 22:57 (UTC+2).
