    The capital city of the Netherlands is a treasure trove of architectural beauty, masterpiece-filled galleries, tranquil scenes of boats putting along 16th-century canals, narrow cobbled laneways filled with boutiques and cafes, and streets busy with cyclists criss-crossing their way about town. Often referred to as the Venice of the North, much of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed canal system exists today as it did hundreds of years ago, lined with well-preserved canal houses and intersected by charming bridges. ...

On its central island, the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Grande Ile, is the Petite France district, so named for the 15th-century hospital that was built here for patients suffering from syphilis, 'the French disease'.

    From Bern, travel through the impossibly pretty town of Lucerne. Perched on the edge of the spectacular Lake Lucerne, you'll find exquisite medieval architecture, a 685-year-old wooden footbridge (the oldest in Europe), and glimpses of the majestic Alps in the distance. This afternoon, we arrive in the city of Zurich, the largest in the country and one of the most livable in the world. Here, residents cycle along wide streets, relax in leafy parks, and dine under the stars in open-air restaurants. It's known as a global financial center, but there's also one of Europe's most eclectic cultural scenes, world-class contemporary art, and a fascinating history. Set off on foot this afternoon for a walking tour with a local guide. Zurich is one of the world's great walking cities, with a flat center, many pedestrian-only streets, and historic bridges. Wander along the Bahnhofstrasse, the city's main street that's lined with glamorous boutiques and international flagship stores. Straddling both sides of the Limmat River, Zurich's Old Town is a pleasant jumble of tiny laneways, cobbled squares, and medieval buildings. Don't miss St Peter's Church, where the original 9th-century foundations are still visible beneath the chancel, and the iconic twin towers of the Grossmunster church. Check into your grand hotel in Zurich for an overnight stay. ...
