Just a stone's throw from the Palais Wilson, the Parc de la Perle du Lac marks the transition between the city and the Botanical Gardens. Cyclists and walkers alike escape along the paths of this green oasis. No wonder that the wife of Hans Wilsdorf, founder of Rolex watches, named this place the "Pearl of the Lake"! In summer, you can relax in the deckchairs while sipping a drink facing the Mont-Blanc. Free screenings are organized in July and August, for the pleasure of movie lovers.
