Genève

Visitors recommend stopping by around sunset for views over the fountain landmark and town.
Reviewers note the area is quite small, situated just across from the Museum of Art and History.

Ancient fortifications once held an observatory here from 1772 to 1861, leaving behind an elevated hillside park with benches facing the lake, city, and a Henry Moore sculpture.
