The town’s growth as a 19th‑century alpine gateway shaped its hotels, promenades, and railway spine; your local guide will point out architectural cues and share concise historical notes as you move. Culture here mixes Bernese German rhythms with tourism‑era cosmopolitanism—markets, cafés, and watchmakers tucked between chalet‑style facades.
