Geneva runs like clockwork. It’s small wonder, then, that no place in the world values timepieces more. In the home of Swiss watch-making you’ll find not just the planet’s best watches in the shops, but also remarkable clocks in public spaces all around town. We’ve rounded up those worth making time for.
The Flower Clock
Originally planted in 1955, the blooming lovely Flower Clock is made up of around 6,500 flowering plants and shrubs. The flowers are switched out every season, giving it a timely new look. Find it at 28 Quai du Général-Guisan.
