Geneva - Broken Chair - Krista photo
1. The medieval atmosphere of the historic buildings in the Old Town, many exciting art galleries
2. A walkable city, and is worth walk a lot
3. Lots of green space and pedestrian street
4. It is easy and enjoyable to see the city by bike, too
5. Great cheese fondue with strong garlic flavor
6. To see The giant ‘Broken Chair’, one of the 21st century's most emblematic works of art
1. A lot of snobbism, show of wealth, too much care about appearances
2. The shops close early (the shopkeepers seem to be very comfortable), in evenings the street life is too calm
3. Lots of dog poops on the streets (even Geneva police complain about that)
4. In Geneva, the well-known, strict Swiss order is not perfect. Homeless people, drunkards, thieves, vandals take care of creating the contrast, the denial of perfection,.
5. The old town is not so old; it is not medieval
6. Paying 20 Swiss francs for a simple kebab food, 4,50 Swiss franc for a can of Coke at the waterfront
