Introduction to Bern, Switzerland

Bern, the capital of the Swiss Confederation, is located in the west of the country on the banks of the Aare River and is the capital of the canton of Bern. As the political center of Switzerland, the federal government agencies and foreign embassies are located here. The city is famous for its well-preserved medieval old town, which was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983.

Founded in 1191, the city's name derives from the German word "Bär" (bear), which is often depicted in the city's symbols and fountains. The Old Town, with its 6 kilometers of arcade streets, Renaissance fountains and famous clock tower (Zytglogge), attracts many visitors.
