Thun

Since the first time I was there, between Thun and me it was love at first sight.
This charming and diverse small town has a magic, peaceful charm.

With its castle towering high above the late-medieval Old Town and its famous raised pavements Thun is always a very enjoyable destination for a day trip.

The city of Thun, which is located at the lower end of Lake Thun, is the gate to the Bernese Oberland.
The historic Old Town is situated about one kilometre from the shore of the lake, on the river Aar, yes, the same lovely green river which flows in Bern.

A very tempting menu which provokes hamletic doubts...
