36 Hours in Enchanting Lucerne, Switzerland The compact Swiss city of Lucerne (Luzern in German) is just an hour's train ride from Zurich, but it feels a world away. Sparkling Lake Lucerne, the surrounding mountains, the Reuss River (pronounced "Royce"), and the 650+ year-old Chapel Bridge instantly greet visitors upon arrival at the train station. The city is simply stunning. According to legend, Lucerne received its name from an angel who guided early settlers to build a monastery, using heavenly light streaming from its hands.

Spring has sprung! If you're planning a trip to Europe this summer/fall, Lucerne deserves a couple of days on your itinerary!
