Romance of the Rhine and Mosel - Switzerland 3

Hi, The city of Lucerne provides tourists with a 72 hour transit pass which can be obtained from the desk of their hotel. On our last day in Lucerne Ruthe and I used the transit pass to visit some places in the city.

Our first stop was the Hotel Gutsch located on a high hill overlooking the city.

After leaving the bus we took an incline to reach the hotel..

Here is the city wall as viewed from this really elegant hotel.

Our next stop was the Synagogue (above and below). While there were children about we did not see any adults to ask permission to enter the premises.


That afternoon I took a walk to visit some of the spots between our hotel and the city wall (above and five below).

This is the end of the city wall visible in the third photo from the top.

The side of the building next to the wall was covered in Wisteria.

Here is another example of building decoration.


One last view of the Chapel Bridge from the side of the river on which our hotel was located.

Thanks for looking.
