Travel Switzerland - Exploring the Lake Town of Morcote
Take a tour of Swiss Town of Morcote in Morcote, Switzerland -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.
Situated on the shore of the beautiful Swiss lake, Lugano , is the even more beautiful town of Morcote.
It's a smaller town, whose buildings and streets hearken back to a time when communities were more closely knit.
Morcote as a town has existed since at least the tenth century and many of its alleyways attest to its medieval origins.
The waters of Lake Lugano, today and throughout history, have been an important part of the town's fishing and trade industries.
One of the town's most famous sites is the 15th century Renaissance and Baroque style Santa Maria Del Sasso church.
Morcote offers several pleasant lakeside walkways and many restaurants and cafes that provide excellent views.

Park Hotel Vitznau Switzerland
Back in 1866, the Villa Von Pfyffer stood alone on 15 hectares of land at the foot of the Rigi, the queen of mountains, on the shores of Lake Lucerne. From 1901 till 1903 the Park Hotel Vitznau was designed, in the belle époque style, by the architect Karl Koller who, in 1912, also built the Suvretta House in St. Moritz. On April 22 in the year 1903 the Park Hotel Vitznau opened its doors for its first summer season. In summer 2009 the Park Hotel Vitznau was sold to Mr. Peter Pühringer's group of companies, the POK Pühringer AG, Switzerland. The Pühringer Group is carrying out extensive renovation and restoration work on the Park Hotel Vitznau to make it into the fairy-tale castle of the future. As soon as this restoration phase is completed, the Park Hotel Vitznau will be reopened and operating all year-round as a purely suite hotel in the luxury segment.
