Montreux: Attractions and more...

Spring, but especially summer are the best periods to enjoy a  relaxing sojourn in this extraordinary beautiful, natural resort.
In the old central Montreux is the Musée du Vieux Montreux in a maze of 17th century buildings, displaying a faithful revival of the main local events and historical objects of artistic value and interest.

In Montreux are many the cultural events: the  Jazz Festival, in July and the Golden Rose, in spring, are just two among the many initiatives.

Not to be missed is the unforgettable walk along the lake which from Villeneuve extends up to Vevey.

In Place du Marché is the statue of Freddy Mercury, once the Queen’s solist vocalist.
An interesting experience is the extraordinary sight of the highest peaks of the Alps, from Glacier des Diablerets.

It is in Gruyères where a 13th century castle can be visited as well as the factory where the famed Gruvère cheese is made.
