French course in Lausanne, Switzerland!
Lausanne
Be sure to bring a camera if you take a French course in Lausanne! Built on three hills overlooking magnificent Lake Geneva, Lausanne is one of Switzerland’s most picturesque cities, lauded by such luminaries as Victor Hugo and Voltaire. For a breathtaking panorama of the medieval old town, the lake and the gargantuan Alps beyond, climb one of the towers of the stunning Gothic Cathedral.
Hiding in the historic buildings of the old town are many museums and art galleries, showcasing everything from photography to the history of the Olympic Games. Many exhibitions and cultural events also take place in Ouchy, a scenic former fishing village, which is now part of Lausanne. From the shimmering marina here, you can take a boat trip across the lake to Geneva, one of Europe’s most cosmopolitan cities. If you study during the winter, you can also enjoy the amazing ski slopes nearby!
