Luzern

I finally hopped a train to probably the most famous city in Switzerland.
And it is probably the prettiest city I have ever seen in my life.
The Wasserturm (water tower) is the most photographed thing in Switzerland. Weird, right?
It was built some time around the 1300's and was used as a treasury, prison, and torture chamber.
Who'da thought to lock up all the treasure with the thieves? Strange.
A use-to-be-castle turned into an overly priced hotel. Still awesome.
city wall...
Luzern Lion... some statue representing some dudes who died forever ago... or something.
