Switzerland - Lucerne, Luzern

Trip: 1st June 2013

And so I bought a ticket from Zürich to Lucerne for 24CHF (~19 Euros). Had Starbucks green tea latte for breakfast because McDonald's and Burger King doesn't sell breakfast! D:



McDonald's is really my best friend. First meal in Lucerne : Ovaltine milk shake, chicken bagel and swiss-guaranteed fries hehe. Not to forget the potato sauce which doesn't taste much of a difference when I dip my fries in.





Different sauces available in McDonalds! Really damn cool lah!







Outside the main train station.






The trademark of Lucerne: Water tower!







Pretty buildings along the river.





Inside the bridge.





Water dam! 






Climbed upslope to the Museggmauer!




A view downhill





While climbing the hill, there were many bull/moomoo (I don't know what animal is that haha)!




 There were like quite a few tall towers, but only two of them allows you to go up and down. They are linked  by a route on the top of the wall. And it's free! Just that need to be wary of the steps.




That's me on top of the wall





A view down one of the towers



Then we walked towards the next famous attraction: The Lion Monument! It's apparently one of the saddest statues in the world, of which the supposedly ferocious lion is highly depressed. Didn't expect the lion to be that big though.


The name of the garden for the lion monument





The sad sad lion monument




Lion cry i also cry! sob sob. 







The great church and there was a wedding held inside when we were there :)



Oh and lastly I find the tap water quality in Switzerland is awesome!
