LAUSANNE SWITZERLAND ✨ Relaxing walk through the city / Shopping Streets & Lake 4K HDR

Welcome to the picturesque city of Lausanne!
Lausanne, the second-largest city on Lake Geneva, combines a dynamic commercial town with the locality of a holiday resort. The capital of the canton of Vaud is also a lively university and convention town. Sports and culture are given a high profile in the Olympic capital.

The setting of Lausanne is extremely picturesque: it is hardly surprising that the International Olympic Committee has been based here since 1914. The town is built on three hills, surrounded by vineyard-covered slopes, with Lake Geneva at its feet. Rising impressively from the opposing French lakeshore are the Savoy Alps. The attractive old town is largely car-free. Small alleyways with cafes and boutiques shape the streetscape in the medieval city centre.

The old town is dominated by the cathedral, which is regarded as Switzerland’s most impressive piece of early Gothic architecture. Lausanne was a diocesan town for over a thousand years. can be found surrounding the cathedral as well as in the pretty waterfront area of Ouchy. Switzerland’s only «metro» connects the various parts of the town and eases travel in this incline-based town.

Also worthy of a visit are the parks, containing many Mediterranean plant species, and grand palace hotels like the Beau-Rivage Palace in Ouchy and the Hotel de l’Angleterre, were Lord Byron once stayed. Gourmets will be able to savour many regional specialities in Lausanne such as cabbage-filled sausage with leek gratin called “Papet Vaudois”.

The «Olympic capital» is home to the Olympic Committee and also the Olympic Museum, the world’s largest information centre about the Olympic games. But sport in general is given a high profile here, examples of which are the «Lausanne Marathon» and «Athletissima», the international meeting for track and field athletics.

Summer itinerary
Have a great day!
Enjoy your magical walk in Lausanne!

  1. I would do anything to eat at Chez Mario and Ma-Jong again, and to walk along the lake with a Movenpick ice cream. So lovely to the city thriving and in better condition than during my university days. I miss living in Lausanne so greatly that it is painful. Sadly, I left after attending UNIL to return to the US. I don’t have Swiss citizenship but I am highly educated now and employable – or able to establish myself in business. I would love to return. I just don’t know how.

    I should have stayed to work for an NGO, or the IOC.

    PS: it is nice to see the church across from the MacDo is cleaned up, as well as the Flon area. The church steps used to be the place where heroin addicts slept with their many dogs.

  2. Cette vidéo ne date pas d’un mois c’est vraiment du n’importe quoi ça doit être juillet- août quand les habitants sont partis en vacances 😂😂😂

  3. Autant je me sens pas très bien à Genève autant j'adore vraiment Lausanne. Elle est ensoleillée, pas trop gaindée mais propre, population plutôt jeune, tout en relief, une vue imprenable sur le lac et sur les Alpes, la vi culturelle et nocturne est plutôt chouette. Le top ça reste quand même en été où l'on peut passer de la baignade / balade / sports au bord du lac à boire une mousse au centre-ville en quelques minutes en prenant le métro.
