Well preserved and maintained, Old Town of Lucerne is a delight for someone who loves to bask in the glory of the days bygone. The UNESCO-listed district with its beautiful lakeside promenade lined with half timbered buildings, old houses with elaborate murals and maze of cobblestone lanes make up for a perfect day out option in Lucerne. Travellers with inclination towards the cultural heritage of Lucerne will have a field day in Old Town. Home to many of the city’s top attractions like the Picasso Museum, Mills Bridge and the 17th century Town Hall, a walk in Old Town is must thing to do in Lucerne.
