Treasure hunting in Geneva's Old Town
Noteworthy for: The Librairie Ancienne is a wonderful antique book store that sells rare and unusual books.
Word to the wise: The Old Town's streets are steep and cobbled, so come ready for some exercise.

A treasure trove for antique hunters or just anyone who loves the past, Geneva's old town galleries are filled with cute shops selling age-old furniture, paintings and objects, some of their stock dating back as far as the Middle Ages.
Even if you don't plan to come home with a sizable chunk of old Switzerland in your suitcase, the narrow cobbled streets of this area are a must-see, each corner opening up views of gabled houses or fine old stone churches.
