People from all nations spanning the globe seem to congregate in Switzerland because of the country's surreal beauty and it comes as no surprise when we find out that Geneva is commonly agreed upon as the best place to live in the world. If a long history of inspirational writers and poets choosing this country as their home doesn't serve as testament to this county's allure then the immortalization the country through their famous works and literature is proof these people had a common muse.
See the Chillon Castle that plays a part in Lord Byron's 'The Prisoner of Chillon' and understand how Wordsworth and T.S. Eliot helped build upon the artistic atmosphere of Lausanne, now renowned for its art and entertainment. Although Switzerland serves as the hub for serenity, it also plays host to some of the most important international organizations; with 200 of them stationed in Geneva. Some of the most influential are the European headquarters of the United Nations, the World Health Organization and the Red Cross. Visit the UN building and see the mosaic of diplomacy that has been one of the crowning achievements of mankind in our time or walk down the halls of the Red Cross Museum.
