8 March highlights in the city and region of Bern
The school holidays are almost over, so now we have time to get lost in our thoughts, daydream a bit and reminisce about the past. However, that doesn’t mean that there’s nothing happening in March. There is a number of events in and around Bern that will make us think about the past with all our senses. Iconic events such as the Night of Museums will bring back many wonderful memories, you’ll be made aware of the uniqueness of films from the 90s, and well-known restaurants are reopened in new splendour.
Our tips
Fondue Tipps in the city and region of Bern
Is there anything cosier on a cold winter evening than enjoying a fondue with friends and family? The restaurants in the city and region of Bern are inviting you to do just that. If you’re looking for a bit of mountain romance in the city, we recommend a visit to the pretty mountain gondolas in front of the Lötschberg restaurant. If you’re leaning more towards the adventurous side, you can experience a full moon fondue on the Gurten or try the vegan version at JUL in the Rathausgasse. If you want to enjoy some spectacular scenery or fairytale winter landscapes, you can eat a fondue on the Stockhorn or in the Kemmeriboden Bad.

伯尔尼(Bern)
Bern
Bern, Winterstadtpanorama
Cities
Hint
简介
没有多少城市如同瑞士首都伯尔尼那样,成功保留了原来的历史风貌。伯尔尼老城已被列入联合国教科文组织文化世界遗产名录,此外其6公里长的拱廊——当地人更喜欢称之为“Lauben”——是欧洲最长的有遮蔽购物散步拱廊。
描述
1191年,柴林根家族利用阿勒河形成的半岛状地带,创建了伯尔尼城。这个美丽的旧城区于1983年被联合国教科文组织指定为世界文化遗产。伯尔尼这个名 字来源于该城的象征—熊(柴林根公爵在该地区狩猎到的第一个猎物,因而命名该城为bern,意为熊)。伯尔尼作为瑞士联邦的首都,同时具备了便利的现代 化大都市的功能体系,观光胜地处不胜数。这里有欧洲最早的长达6公里的拱型长廊商品购物中心。有众多的博物馆、咖啡店、餐厅和商店。还有每周开放一次的市场及年底热闹的圣诞市场。另外,由于伯尔尼是瑞士的首都,因此还可以顺便去位于旧城区市中心的国会大楼去看看。伯尔尼的交通非常方便。如果您想用一天的时间来了解瑞士的话,那么去伯尔尼是再好不过的选择了。伯尔尼有许多喷泉、砂岩外墙、狭窄的街道和历史悠久的高塔,这种中世纪气息是独一无二的。由于玫瑰园(Rose Garden)的位置高于熊公园,而大教堂钟塔高达101米,因而从这两处俯瞰,老城的景色一览无余,阿勒河从三面环绕老城而过。旧时的防御工事和堡垒呈陡坡状伸入河中。老城的时装店、酒吧、卡巴莱舞台(其中一些位于拱形地下室)以及小街道咖啡厅既吸引了本地人也吸引众多外地游客。虽然伯尔尼有非常发达的公共交通网络,但是最好还是步行来发现这座城市之美。 保罗·克勒博物馆座落在市郊,收藏的艺术家保罗·克勒(Paul Klee)的作品最丰富。爱因斯坦博物馆见证了这位物理学天才20世纪初在伯尔尼的生活。伯尔尼的历史博物馆、艺术博物馆、瑞士阿尔卑斯山博物馆和通讯博物馆向世人展示包罗万象的各种展品。 伯尔尼是瑞士联邦政府所在地。议会大厦(Bundeshaus)耸立在城区内,和火车站近在咫尺。议会大厦大部分时间向游客开放,如果运气好的话,您还会在街上撞见议员。 夏天是在阿勒河里享受终极游泳体验的绝好时机:经验丰富的游泳者会一边让自己漂流在清澈的阿勒河上,一边欣赏议会大厦的景色。和Dählhölzli动物园及旧马特区(Matte district)一样,植物园也位于阿勒河畔。伯尔尼和城徽上的熊之间是密不可分的。如果游览伯尔尼城,就必须要去熊公园参观一下熊,看看它们吃胡萝卜的样子。 在市中心的广场上,每周都会有五彩缤纷的集市,出售商品货物。每年11月的第四个星期一举办的洋葱市场(Zibelemärit)特别值得一游:凌晨时分,大批游客就开始涌向城里传统的洋葱市场。
会奖
安全可靠,交通便利,基础设施齐全,景点众多,这是瑞士首都周边地区成为瑞士第二大经济区的原因。不过,伯尔尼成功背后的真正秘诀在于其轻松的氛围,这可能缘于瑞士首都的传奇魅力、富有想象的建筑以及举世闻名的联合国教科文组织世界遗产地老区融为一体。伯尔尼为商务活动提供了种类繁多的场所,步行即可到达 ——从历史悠久的拱形酒窖(例如Kornhauskeller)到文化和建筑瑰宝(如保罗克利中心)或超现代的伯尔尼卡萨尔会议中心(Kursaal Bern),应有尽有。
消息
信息由地区或地方旅游局提供,瑞士国家旅游局不对此内容做出承诺。
七月带来了一系列活动和短途旅行创意,使您在伯尔尼度过更加甜蜜的夏天。众多音乐表演将涌向这座城市,在伯尔尼当地山峰古尔滕,在盛大的周年庆典上为观众献上精彩的表演。古尔滕Gugus 、嘻哈音乐节SPEX以及Getanzt(舞蹈)音乐节等纷纷亮相。伯尔尼骄傲节将继续保持丰富多彩和轻松欢快的风格。7月,您一定会在某个时刻渴望在迷人的黑水峡谷(Schwarzwasserschlucht)中消暑。

Bern, SwitzerlandHouses lining the banks of the Aare River in Bern, Switzerland.(more)BernBern, city, capital of Switzerland and of Bern canton, in the west-central part of the country. It lies along a narrow loop of the Aare River. The existence of the ancient castle of Nydegg, guarding a crossing over the Aare, probably led Berthold V, duke of Zähringen, to found Bern in 1191 as a military post on the frontier between the German-speaking Alemanni and the French-speaking inhabitants of Burgundy. After the extinction of the Zähringen dynasty (1218), Bern became a free imperial city. Gradually it extended its power by acquiring surrounding territory, becoming an independent state that in 1353 entered the Swiss Confederation, which it soon began to lead. After a devastating fire ravaged the predominantly wood-built town in 1405, Bern was rebuilt with sandstone. Although much of the surrounding metropolis has since been modernized, the centre (Old Bern) still remains intact from that period.Bern was the scene of a disputation in 1528 between Roman Catholics and Reformers that led to its acceptance and subsequent championship of Protestant doctrines. In the 18th century Bern governed 52 territories, and its patricians exercised considerable power. The whole system of Bernese patrician government was swept away by the French in 1798; it was partially revived in 1815 but ended in 1831. Bern became the political capital of the Swiss Confederation in 1848.

Bern, SwitzerlandOld Bern, Switzerland.(more)The medieval Clock Tower in Bern, Switzerland, seen from the Kramgasse. In the foreground is the Zähringen Fountain, surmounted by a bear in armour, the city's heraldic device.Old Bern, connected by several bridges to newer parts of the city on the right bank, preserves more of its medieval appearance than any other Swiss city. It is characterized by 2.3 square miles (6 square km) of covered arcades, towers, and 16th-century fountains. The Gothic cathedral (1421–1598), with its 328-foot (100-metre) spire—the highest in Switzerland—is the dominant landmark. Also notable are the City Hall (Rathaus; 1406–16, restored 1942) and the Nydegg Church (1494). The Federal Palace (Bundeshaus; 1851–1902) houses the Swiss federal parliament, as well as the administrative and executive offices of the federal government. The famous Clock Tower (Zeitglockenturm), with a 16th-century clock and mechanical puppets that perform four minutes before every hour, and the Cage Tower (Käfigturm) are the two remaining towers of the old walls that once protected the city. A favourite decorative motif is the bear (Old High German: bero), commemorating the legend of the first animal killed by Berthold V in the year the city was founded; this legend is said to be the source of the city’s name. Perhaps the most famous Bern landmark is the bear pit, where bears have been kept on display at the city’s expense since 1480. Old Bern was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1983.The University of Bern was founded in 1834 and incorporates the Theological School (founded 1528). The City and University Library (1528) contains many manuscripts and rare books. The Swiss National Library (1895) is also in Bern, as is the headquarters of the Swiss National Bank. The Museum of Fine Arts (Kunstmuseum), opened in 1879, houses the world’s largest collection of works by the Swiss painter Paul Klee—a total of more than 2,000 items.
In addition to being the Swiss federal capital, Bern is the headquarters of the international postal, telegraph, railway, and copyright unions. Its industries include the manufacture of printing products, chocolate, machinery, electrical equipment, and chemical and pharmaceutical products. It is also a market for agricultural produce and a busy rail junction. The airport at Belpmoos, 6 miles (10 km) southeast, has a regular summer service linking Bern with Zürich’s international airport. The population is mainly German-speaking and Protestant. Pop. (2014 est.) 129,964.

Bern, SwitzerlandBern, canton, west-central Switzerland. It is the second most populous and second largest of the Swiss cantons; about 100 square miles (260 square km) are occupied by glaciers. Bordering Jura canton (until 1979 part of Bern canton) and Solothurn canton to the north, it is bounded on the west by the cantons of Neuchâtel, Fribourg, and Vaud; south by Valais; and east by Uri, Unterwalden, Lucerne, and Aargau. It is drained mainly by the Aare River and its affluents. Three physical divisions may be distinguished. The Bernese Highlands in the south includes the Alps, culminating in the Finsteraarhorn (14,022 feet [4,274 m]) and the Jungfrau (13,642 feet [4,158 meter]), and the famous resorts of Interlaken, Thun, Meiringen, Grindelwald, Mürren, and Kandersteg. This region is extremely mountainous and is noted for its great scenic beauty. The Midlands (Mittelland) consists of the Aare valley below Thun, the Emme River valley, the foothills of the high Alps, and the plain around the city of Bern. In the north of the canton lies the Lake Region around Lake Biel.The canton comprises the districts acquired by the city of Bern, the cantonal capital, between the 14th and the 16th century. From 1803 to 1814 the canton of Bern was one of the six directorial cantons of the Swiss Confederation. The existing constitution dates from 1893, but the direct popular election of the executive council (Regierungsrat) was introduced in 1906.
Thun, SwitzerlandThun, Switzerland, on the Aare River, with the Zähringen-Kyburg Castle in the background.(more)In the Highlands the principal economic factors are the year-round tourist trade, agriculture, cattle breeding, cheese making (at the Emmental), and hydroelectric power generation. There is also wood carving at Brienz and pottery making near Thun. The Midlands is a fertile agricultural region and is also the most industrialized part of the canton. Machinery, metal products, and precision instruments are produced in the canton. Because the city of Bern is the national capital, Bern canton is home to a large number of employees of the federal government. A nuclear power station is located at Mühleberg. There is vine culture around Lake Biel. The population of the canton is mainly German speaking and Protestant. Area 2,300 square miles (5,959 square km). Pop. (2007 est.) 958,987.

In the words of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe when he visited Bern in 1779: “Sie ist die Schönste, die wir je gesehen haben” (“It is the most beautiful [city] we have ever seen”). Over 200 years later, the city still impresses and awes visitors with its beauty. But Bern is not just pretty to look at, it also has an irresistible charm, is incredibly diverse, and exudes a feeling and a way of life that can only be felt in Bern.
Bern's Old City
The Old City, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is the heart of Bern. Its arcades do not only protect us from the rain and the sun, they also house a plethora of unique shops and stylish boutiques. One special feature of the Old City are the bars and restaurants in the vaulted cellars – in the past, the sandstone cellars were used to store supplies, now they’re filled with hip beer bars, ateliers, or second-hand shops.
City Tours
Incorporating the city’s landmarks as well as its secret corners and hidden treasures, providing both historical background and amusing anecdotes, Bern’s city tours are as diverse as the city itself. Informed and interesting, funny and astonishing, historical and topical: the tours are instructive, exciting, and at times spooky – but always entertaining.

Surrounded by nature
Be it on a bike, on foot, or by water – anyone who’s on the move in the federal city will quickly realize: they’re surrounded by nature. The Aare in particular holds a very special place in the hearts of the locals. Going for a dip in the emerald water of the river is an essential part of a Bernese summer. In the cooler seasons, there are also many ways to explore Bern’s urban nature, for example by going on an e-bike tour or a walk on the Gurten, Bern's local mountain.

Political Bern
When transitioning from a confederation (an alliance of independent, sovereign cantons with no unity) to a federation, the people of Switzerland where unable to agree on whether the country should have a capital and if so, which city it should be. The discussion ended in a compromise: on 28 November 1848, the National Council and the Council of States elected Bern to be the home of the federal authorities, however, it is called federal city and not capital. Many foreign visitors are surprised to learn that Bern is Switzerland’s “capital”. To them, it would seem more logic if it were Zurich, the country’s economic centre, or international Geneva. But Bern is perfectly positioned, geographically speaking, for mediating between the different parts of Switzerland, and its multilingualism is also an advantage. This is why, in the end, Bern was chosen to be the country's political centre.
