  1. The city of Berne  is the "Bundesstadt" (administrative capital) of Switzerland and the fourth most populous Swiss city (after Zürich, Geneva and Basel).It lies in the Swiss plateau part of the Canton of Bern, somewhat west of the center of Switzerland.The weather pleasantly cool year round.


  2. The capital of Switzerland, in the west-central part of the country on the Aare River. Founded as a military post in 1191, it became part of the Swiss Confederation in 1353 and its capital in 1848. Population: 122,000.

  3. Western part of Switzerland. Weather excellent and can be visited

  4. I am also interested to know

  5. Bern lies in the Swiss plateau part of the Canton of Bern, somewhat west of the center of Switzerland. The landscape around Bern was formed by glaciers in the last ice age. The two mountains closest to Bern are the Gurten with a height of 858 meters and the Bantiger with a height of 947 meters. The site of the old observatory in Bern is the origin (600 000/200 000) of the CH1903 coordinate system, its international coordinates are 46°57′08.66″N, 7°26′22.50″E.

    Bern's city center is largely medieval and has been recognised by UNESCO as a Cultural World Heritage Site. Perhaps its most famous sight is the Zytglogge, an elaborate medieval clock tower with moving puppets. It also has an impressive 15th century Gothic cathedral, the Münster, and a 15th century town hall. Thanks to 6 kilometers of arcades, the old town boasts one of the longest covered shopping promenades in Europe.

    The city was originally built on a peninsula engulfed by the river Aare but outgrew the natural boundaries of the river in the 19th century. The following bridges were built to allow the city to grow outside of the boundaries imposed by the river:

    -1844 Nydeggbrücke (at the bottom, i.e. the East-End)

    -1883 Kirchenfeldbrücke (at the South-side)

    -1898 Kornhausbrücke (at the North-side)

    The city is built on very uneven ground. There are several dozens of meters in height difference from the quarters down at the Aare (e.g. Matte, Marzili) to the higher ones (e.g. Kirchenfeld, Länggasse)..
