Introduction

The English Garden is an elegant English-style garden by Lake Geneva, on the left bank at the foot of the old town—a lakeside oasis for strolling. Laid out in English garden style with lawns and flowers, its most famous feature is the charming Flower Clock. The garden faces Lake Geneva and the towering Jet d'Eau, with open views—a great spot to enjoy the lake and photograph. It also has fountains, sculptures and monuments (like the monument to Geneva joining the Swiss Confederation). At dusk it is a nice place to watch the lake sunset and the lit fountain. Free and centrally located, the English Garden is the hub linking Geneva's lakeside landmarks.
