Do you know where the literary and low-key capital of Europe is? .

Bern, also known as Bern, is the seat of the Swiss federal government and the capital of Switzerland. The fourth largest city after Zurich, Geneva and Balce. At the same time, Bern is also known as the "Bear City". According to legend, the city lord went out hunting and decided to name the city after the first beast he hunted. It so happened that the first beast captured was a bear, hence the name "Bear City". In German, Bern means "bear". ❤ Bern Old Town It was built in the 12th century on the hills surrounded by the Ahr River and became the capital of Switzerland in 1848. The changes in history can be seen from the architecture of the ancient city of Bern. The ancient city retains the elegant arched corridors and fountains from the 16th century. The main buildings of this medieval town were rebuilt in the 18th century, retaining their original historical features. It was listed on the World Heritage List by UNESCO in 1983. ❤ Bern Clock Tower When the city of Bern was built in the 13th century, it served as an entrance and exit connecting Bern with the outside world and was the gateway to the city of Bern. The little man in the tower will rotate and come out of the magnificent clock tower to tell the time 4 minutes before every hour, attracting tourists to stop and take a look. ❤ Rose Park Ancient architectural gardens in Bern. It has a historic ancient fountain and elegant architectural style. The Rose Garden is also the back garden of Bern, which is separated from the old town by a river. There is a bus stop on the east side of the rose garden. Of course, you can also climb up leisurely from the path opposite the bear garden. The ancient Bern and the Aare River are right at your feet. There are more than 220 species of roses, irises, cherry blossoms and other flowers in full bloom in the park, totaling 18,000 plants. When the flowering season comes, the park is full of flowers and is extremely romantic. ❤ Bear Garden Bernier spared no expense in building a modern park where the baby bears can climb, fish, play, and return to the original bear park to rest when they are tired. The 6,000 square meter park stretches from the former bear park on the banks of the Aare River opposite the old town to the riverside. The "Bear Park" before the renovation still exists and is still a place where bears live freely. The bear park is connected to the new park through a tunnel. Visitors can visit the original bear park and the new park under the guidance of bear keepers. 🧡【tips】: If you are lucky, you can see the keepers feeding the young bears. Of course, you have to stand at a safe distance to appreciate it.
