Draped at the foot of the Jura and the Alps, on the westernmost tip of Lac Léman, Geneva is the most cosmopolitan and graceful of Swiss cities and the stronghold of the French-speaking territory. The city emits an aura of Gallic hauteur. Rolls-Royces purr past manicured promenades, and grand mansarded mansions stand guard beside the River Rhône, where yachts bob and gulls dive. The combination of Swiss efficiency and French savoir faire gives Geneva a chic polish, and the city is home to some of the world's most luxurious stores and extravagant restaurants.
