There’s no denying the fact that Lucerne is the ultimate cliché romantic Swiss getaway everyone dreams of. Perfectly nestled at the foot of the snow-capped Alps, Lucerne is everything that visually appeals to the eyes, and it is naturally beautiful. The river side cafes and glacial mountains simply add up to the beauty of the city. Visit the Chapel bridge, Lion Monument, Swiss Museum of Transport, Spreuer Bridge. Summer (Jun–Aug) is warm. Winter (Dec–Feb) is cold. Rain falls year-round. May–Oct is the peak travel time.
