The recreational wealth of Switzerland is evidenced, at least, by the nickname given to the northern coast of Lake Geneva - Swiss Riviera .However, other lakes are not inferior to this .Montreux and Vevey - resorts with a rich history, who saw many representatives of royal families, writers, artists and musicians with world names - in addition to exceptional rest and very high-quality treatment (in particular, here is the world-famous clinic La Prairie) can offer a serious "excursion" (which is at least the Chillon Castle!) and a brilliant cultural life: the Montreux Jazz Festival has been hosting the best performers of the planet for almost half a century .
