Sankt Gallen

by Shibiru - last update: Jun 12, 2004

The city

The monastery
The city has only 70'000 habitants, but from all different nationalities. It's one of the biggest and most important cities in Switzerland. Their main language is German and it's a pretty religious city with historical background.
Appenzell (nearby city)

What to do?

It's a great place to go shopping...with small streets and cute houses/architecture.

It's also a great place to begin some nice walks, to the constance lake for example or small cities nearby.

The organisation and location for bike trips is very good!

There's a very old and famous library that is really worth seeing.

If you are doing a trip around Switzerland, it's a cute city to visit, but you can see everything in 2 - 3 days...on sundays nothing happens.

It's a good place to stay on winter, 'cause there are a lot of places around where you can go skying.

Parties and Young People

The parties are ok, 2 per week..mostly organised by the Management University. There aren't a lot of programs at night, but there's cinema (expensive), a lot of openairs in summer and some bars and restaurants....

There are many nice theater spectacles to be seen each season.

 Your pic of roesti made me hungry and remined me of the delicious one I had in Chur. Hope you have a great birthday, Sybil. Greetings from Georgia (US, not old USSR -LOL).
