I am planning to travel to Lucerne in autumn. What are the fun things to do in Lucerne or what should I pay attention to? Thank you!

1. Lucerne is a great small town with many things to do. You must do your homework before going there! I have a few points to share:

1. Lucerne Merchants in Sen. accept payment with China UnionPay cards;

2. The Swiss Pass allows you to enjoy a 50% discount on climbing Mount Titlis and Mount Pilatus. You can also visit the museum for free.

3. Although Lucerne is a German-speaking area, many local people can speak English, especially several major watch and jewelry retail stores such as Bucherer, Gubelin, Embassy, ??etc., which have Chinese-speaking clerks;

4. The public security in Lucerne is very good, but due to Schengen, migrant populations coming from some poor countries in Europe need to be particularly careful.

5. Lucerne’s tap water can be drank directly. Bottled water is divided into carbonated and non-carbonated sparkling water. You can choose according to your personal preferences. Don’t forget to confirm when ordering. To apply, just click tapwater.

6. If you want to go up Mount Titlis near Lucerne, you should bring cold-proof and warm clothes and sunglasses. The mountain is covered with snow all year round and the temperature is low.

7. It is especially recommended to experience the Golden Circle Tour of Mount Pilatus! First, take a boat from Lucerne to the Mount Pilatus mountaineering train station Alpnachstad, and then transfer to the world's steepest cogwheel mountaineering train. Go up the mountain, have fun, take the cable car down to Kriens, and finally take the bus back to Lucerne. You need to experience different means of transportation throughout the trip. The perfect combination of mountains and lakes is very unique. But we won’t be able to catch up with this season after the end of October, and we can only look forward to reopening in May next year.

8. The Lake Lucerne cruise is also very cost-effective. We especially recommend the lunch cruise, where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lake and mountains while tasting delicious food. It’s free to board the ship with a Swiss Pass.

9. Lucerne’s city-circling sightseeing train passes through various major attractions in the ancient city, such as covered bridges and water towers, mill bridges, sluices, Jesuit churches, Musegg City Walls, Lion Monuments, etc. There are audio explanations in multiple languages ??including Chinese. Opening dates are from April to October every year.

10. The Lucerne Tourist Information Center is located inside the train station, where you can get instructions for free hotspot Internet access in the city. Each visitor can enjoy 60 minutes of free outdoor surfing.
