What are the famous cities in Switzerland?

Bern: Bern is located in the west of Switzerland. The Federal Constitution 1848 is the capital of Switzerland, also known as the "federal city", and the capital of bern state. It covers an area of more than 230 square kilometers (including suburbs), with an urban population of 1.24 million and an altitude of 550 meters. It is located at a natural bend of the Allen River, a tributary of the Rhine River. The swift river surrounds the old town of Bern from three sides, forming a peninsula. Legend has it that in order to name the city, the then ruler Duke Zalingen decided to go hunting and named the city after the first wild animal he caught. As a result, he killed a bear, so he named the city after the word "bear" The name Bern comes from the German word "bear", which is pronounced as "Bayer" in German and then gradually changed to "Bern". "Bear" naturally became the emblem of Bern, and then became the symbol of bern state. Some ancient buildings in Bern still have sculptures of bears. There is also a bear park near the Niederger Bridge on the east bank of the Aer River, where some bears are fed for tourists to watch. Bern was founded in the12nd century, and it has a history of 800 years since it was built in the18th century. Some of the original wooden buildings in the old town of Bern were destroyed in many fires in the Middle Ages, and later they were rebuilt with stone structures, and they are still intact: the carriage road paved with gravel, the long arches connected with each other on both sides of the street, the ancient houses with red tiles and white walls, the colorful columns of the fountain with allusions in the center of the street, the bell tower in the 142 1 century and the late Gothic cathedral, which make the main streets now designated as pedestrian areas. The ancient city of Bern is listed as a world famous cultural city by UNESCO. Switzerland has no fixed capital for a long time. 1On October 28th, Bern was designated as the federal capital of Switzerland and became the seat of the federal government and the national political and diplomatic center. The copper-green federal building of the federal government and the federal parliament, located on the north bank of the Aer River, is a group of large-scale palace-style buildings made of granite, which was built in 1852- 1857. The left and right wings of the building are the office buildings of the federal ministries, and under the middle dome are the conference halls of the two houses of the federal parliament. The building 1894- 1902 was expanded, and 1993 was renovated again, adding electronic voting devices. Due to public opposition to noise and terrain, Bern has not built a large airport, but only a small airport with flights to major cities in Western Europe. Bern has expressway leading to all parts of the country, and it is also one of the national railway hubs. After World War II, Bern's machinery, instruments, electrical appliances, pharmaceuticals, textiles, food, construction, printing and other industries have developed year by year, but they are all small and medium-sized enterprises, which do not occupy an important position in the Swiss economy. Bern is mainly an administrative and financial center as well as a cultural and tourist city. The University of Bern is one of the oldest universities in this city, which was founded in 1834 and is famous for studying cosmic rays. In addition, there are many different types of museums, such as history, natural history, art and weapons. Bern is also home to the Universal Postal Union and the General Administration of International Railway Transport. Historically, many revolutionary activists lived in Bern. Engels went to Bern in the autumn of 1848 to guide the Swiss workers' movement. Lenin also stopped at Zimmerwald and Kuntar near Bern from September 19 14 to early 19 16, and wrote many articles exposing the second international opportunist traitor. Einstein, a famous physicist, studied physics in his spare time while working in the Berne Federal Patent Office, and published Berne's proud masterpiece Relativity, which still retains Einstein's residence (now it has been turned into a museum).
