#2 of Best Things to Do in Geneva
Historical Architectures
旅の径
The Palais des Nations, with its dignified architectural community and unique historical status, has become a must-check-in landscape in Geneva, Switzerland. The League of Nations was established in Geneva in 1920 after the First World War. It hosted the construction of the Palais des Nations in 1931-1938, as the headquarters of the League of Nations, also known as the League of Nations Building. After World War II, the Palais was owned by the United Nations in 1946, and then the location of the United Nations Office at Geneva, also known as the United Nations European headquarters. Visiting the Palais des Nations, two striking highlights are significant. The flag is fluttering. On the south side of the Palais des Nations, four rows of flag poles are divided in two and two, brushing from the gate to the building; the flags of more than 190 United Nations member states are suspended high, fluttering in the wind... The world is in harmony, festive and peaceful. Broken chairs are broken. The Palais des Nations, the sculpture "broken leg bench" stands, but wakes up to the world never forget the disaster brought by the mines in the war to innocent people. The back of the 12-meter-high chair is directly inserted into the sky; the legs of the three missing chairs are strung up...war trauma, humiliation and sorrow. The flag and the broken chair seemed to meditate: War and peace, the two drivers of human history, when will the development of pluralistic peace and globalization be ushered in?

我不是李亚鹏
The Bern Bell Tower is the oldest building in the city of Bern, and when it was built in the 13th century, it served as an entrance to the city of Bern and the outside world, and was the gateway to the city of Bern. The little people in the tower will spin the clock from the gorgeous clock tower four minutes before each hour, attracting visitors. The charming shapes, figures, clock face and astronomical clocks were architectural masterpieces that were not officially completed until 1530, while the exquisite mechanical craftsmanship of the 13th century was surprising.
