Fifteen years after being in Luzern for the first time, a visit that was included on a tour to Mount Pilatus, I thought it was a good idea to explore this city in more detail. A train would take us there from Zürich's Central Station.

Luzern
In Luzern it's almost inevitable to start with the Chapel Bridge which caught fire in 1993 destroying some of its famous triangular paintings.
The city of Luzern is built around the Reuss river.

Museggmauer
Museggmauer
Once part of the old town's historic fortifications, the Museggmauer is a 800 meters long wall with nine towers and you can visit the interior and top of some of them. The wall and its towers give wonderful view over the city of Luzern.
And back to the ground level city stroll...
One last view of the Chapel Bridge...

Zürich
Before heading back to the hotel we decided to stop in Zürich. The weather was not that great despite being summer and we even had to face some drizzle.
