Lausanne
Country: Switzerland.
Lausanne is built on the southern slope of the Swiss plateau, with a difference in elevation of about 500 metres between the lakeshore at Ouchy and its northern edge of Le Mont-sur-Lausanne and Épalinges. The spectacular panoramic view of the lake and the Alps is a unique hallmark of this city. The French town of Evian-les-Bains and the Jura Mountains are located in the northwest, about 45 minutes sailing from the lake. It is located in a famous wine-producing area. It is the fourth largest city in Switzerland.
