This place is absolutely must visit and good chocolate tasting. There is a Cafe on site. Must reserve tickets early as tickets can sold out for that day.

The exhibition hall is large, divided into a new hall and an old hall. It's recommended to start with the old hall. It mainly showcases Swiss history from various perspectives. The service is excellent, and there are interactive elements with visitors, making it a highly recommended destination. The hall has Wi-Fi, but there is no Chinese audio guide. Only English, French, German, and Italian are available.
