Description
A central point in Lausanne, at the Place St Francois and Grand Pont. Shots of the Union de Banques Suisses and the Bel Air Tower in the background.
People walking, city traffic. At Lake Geneva is one of the largest fountains in the world, the Jet d’Eau (it sprays water to a
height of 140 metres). Originally it was part of a hydraulic power network for water from the Rhône river. The pressure of the water forced engineers to install a safety valve in the centre of the lake to relieve the pressure.
