The Olympic Capital
Lausanne, the second-largest city on Lake Geneva is the capital city and biggest town of the canton of Vaud in Romandy, Switzerland. Lausanne is a focus of international sport, hosting the International Olympic Committee since 1994.
The most important geographical feature of the area surrounding Lausanne is Lake Geneva (Lac Léman in French). Lausanne is built on the southern slope of the Swiss plateau, with a difference in elevation of about 500 metres (1,640 ft) between the lakeshore at Ouchy and its northern edge bordering Le Mont-sur-Lausanne and Épalinges. Lausanne boasts a dramatic panorama over the lake and the Swiss and Savoyan Alps.
Olympic, the world’s largest information centre about the Olympic games. But sport in general is given a high profile here. It faces the French town of Évian-les-Bains, with the Jura Mountains to its north-west. Lausanne is located 62 kilometres (38.5 miles) northeast of Geneva. The setting of Lausanne is extremely picturesque. Stone buildings, with shutters in soft green, chalky blue and dove grey, give Lausanne an elegant, Almost-Mediterranean vibe. On its charming streets, shops sell goods ranging from flaky croissants to antiquarian books.
It is a place for museum-people who are very passionate about culture and traditions and also, parks and gardens or along the floral quays, excursions on the lake or in the vineyards, sporting and cultural activities are for you there to entertain you. People who seek for a relaxation can find spa.
The attractive old town is largely car-free. Small alleyways with cafes and boutiques shape the streetscape in the medieval city centre. It is good place for Shopping and nights out. Lausanne is Switzerland’s third-most expensive city to rent an apartment in. The third metro line, set to open in 2026, will further improve public transport.
