Aquatis, Lausanne
Europe’s largest freshwater aquarium, takes you on a tour of Switzerland, and the world’s most fascinating freshwater species. Salamanders, piranha and a komodo dragon are among the species you’ll see at the aquarium. The spectacle also comes with an important message as most of the creatures on display are endangered and at risk of being snuffed out.
Chillon Castle, Montreux
Chillon Castle, near the lakeside town of Montreux, is renowned as Switzerland’s most visited historic site. Children will particularly enjoy it during the month of December when the castle is transformed into a winter wonderland as part of the Montreux Noël Christmas celebrations.
