| Geneva Travel Guide Edit This The best resource for sights, hotels, restaurants, bars, what to do and see Geneva port from the water jet halley Geneva port from the water jet halley Sebastien Lachat Say 'Geneva' to a person and what will come up first? An inhabitant of the city itself will probably say that it is 'a continent on its own'. Say it to a foreigner and he or she will probably refer to the building of the United Nations located in Geneva. After the foundation of the WHAT IF SOMEONE PLAYS MISCHIEF? that flows out of the lac Leman (lake Geneva). The old city is located on the southern shore (rive gauche or left bank), the train station north of the river, and the airport north-west of the city,straddling the French border, but only a short bus ride away. Most sights are within easy walking distance and the public transport system (with busses and trams) is very reliable. This 'smallest of the large capitals', as it is called, offers nearly everthing, ranging from extensive banking and shopping areas to rich artistic and cultural input. Geneva is packed with museums and, to a lesser extent, historical sights. When you have had it for the day, go to one of the many parks, largely created by the financial imput of many wealthy citizens. Most of the time during the summer, you can watch a free concert in one of the theatres or simply prepare yourself for the nightlife in Geneva. _________Sights Edit This The building of the United Nations is one of the famous buildings in Geneva. This enormous complex, which covers a surface area equal to that of Versailles, was completed in 1936. Since 1946 it has housed the offices of the United Nations. Besides this, Geneva has over thirty museums. Together with the private galleries, they house some prestigious collections, which bear witness to the creativity and cultural influence of Geneva. For those interested in history and architecture, the Old Town has a number of exceptional sites and Genevan emblems, such as the Jet d'Eau Fountain' and the Floral Clock. When you want to breathe in some fresh air, you can find lushy parks and splendid botanical gardens.

Il getto d'acqua sul lago di Ginevra
Ginevra (francese: Genève, tedesco: Genf, romancio: Genevra) è la seconda città piu popolata della Svizzera dopo Zurigo, situata dove il Lago di Ginevra (francese: Lac de Genève o Lac Léman) riconfluisce nel fiume Rodano. Ginevra è la capitale dell'omonimo cantone (Cantone di Ginevra).
[modifica] PopolazioneFonti: "National Office of Statistics" e "Statistique Genève"
[modifica] Organizzazioni ed enti internazionaliGinevra è la sede di molte organizzazioni internazionali, tra cui l'Organizzazione Mondiale del Commercio (World Trade Organization, WTO), il CERN (Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire), l'Organizzazione Internazionale per le Standardizzazioni (ISO), il Concilio Mondiale delle Chiese e diverse Organizzazioni delle Nazioni Unite, come l'Organizzazione Mondiale per la Sanità (OMS), l'Organizzazione Internazionale per il Lavoro, l'Alto Commissariato delle Nazioni Unite per i Rifugiati (UNHCR), l'Alto Commissariato delle Nazioni Unite per i Diritti Umani (UNHCHR), Il Fondo delle Nazioni Unite per l'Infanzia (UNICEF), l'Organizzazione Mondiale per la Proprietà Intellettuale (WIPO) e altre. Ginevra ospita anche il Comitato Internazionale della Croce Rossa e Mezzaluna Rossa Internazionale e Amnesty International. Fu anche la sede della Società delle Nazioni fino alla sua chiusura.
[modifica] TrasportiL'unica compagnia di trasporti pubblici del cantone di Ginevra, oltre alle Ferrovie Federali Svizzere, è la TPG (Transports Publics Genevois). Ci sono alcune aziende che hanno ricevuto in subappalto dalla TPG alcune linee, ma usano lo stesso sistema tariffario (in comune con le ferrovie) e in genere usano veicoli con i colori TPG. All'utente normale questo sistema di subappaltare le linee non causa nessuna variazione nel servizio.
