Worth noting
The lakeside promenade of Montreux is not only home to palatial hotels, the Casino, and the Congress Centre, it also offers spectacular views of Lake Geneva.
Montreux, at 25,000 inhabitants the third largest city in the Canton of Waadt after Lausanne and Yverdon-les-Bains, has more to offer than music festivals. It is also home to the traditional market "Foire des Planches", the Festival of Laughter (Festival de rire), the Montreux Volleymasters, and the street art festival "Festival des artistes de rue". In the winter, visitors are charmed by the city’s Christmas Market.
