The best of Switzerland - Geneva- Place St. Pierre

Cathedrale St-Pierre, Place St. Pierre (at the highest point in the Old Town) A noteworthy space of unique spiritual and cultural importance. The Cathedral and its towers, originally Catholic, both embody the high point of the REformed tradition and explore the origins of Christianity with an extensive archaeological site and they are now complemented by the International Museum of the Reformation on the ground floor of the Maision Mallet. The tower of the Place provides good paranamic review of the city of Geneva, Jet d"Eau and lake.

The best of Switzerland - Geneva - Jet d'Eau and Lake Geneva

Jet d'Eau (Fountain of Geneva): One of the crowning symbols of Geneva, a fountain of water pumped 140m into the air. The spectacular plume was once an occasional pressure release for hydro-power generation on the Phone River, but people liked it so much that in 1891 the city created a permanent pumped fountain. (Reference Source: vikitravel.org) Photos in this post showing Jet d'Eau seen from different parts of the city.
