Things to do in Geneva

• Jet d'Eau (Water Fountain)
  When you are visiting Geneva, a must see is the Jet d'Eau water fountain.  This impressive fountain is the city's most famous landmark..  This amazing fountain is one of the largest fountains in the world so while you are touring around Geneva don't miss seeing the Jet d'Eau fountain.  This famous fountain originally was created in 1886, and was moved from the river than placed in its current location with great exposure and lakeside location and supplied with more and more powerful pumps.  The height of the water jet is an incredible 140 meters high with 500 liters of water being forced out of the nozzle at speeds of 130 miles per hour every second.  Each drop takes about sixteen seconds to complete the round trip from nozzle to the lake.  On windy days the plume can rapidly drench the near surroundings.  If the wind is too bad the fountain will be turned off temporarily.  To experience the true force of this powerful fountain grab a rain coat and take a walk out onto the jetty to appreciate the force and noise it will be worth the drenching!!!!   If you are wondering what type of powerful source is beneath this fountain? there are two powerful groups of motor pumps totaling over 16 tons of weight and total power close to 1,000 kilowatts fed by an electric tension of 2400 volts.  The water is drawn in a circular water-sump and is directed towards an exit pipe with incredible force...  During the operation of the fountain there is 1,849 gallons of water spraying high up in the air.  The fountain is also illuminated in the evening, this is quite an impressive sight if you have never see the fountain be sure you don't miss it on your visit to Geneva.  The Jet d'Eau is closed during November and December.

The two main towers that were never completed date back to the 13th century, the metal spire over the crossing was built in 1895, replacing a tower that was destroyed by a fire during the 15th century.  The original west front doorway was replaced from 1749-1756 by a portico of six Corinthian columns.  Extensive restoration of the church began in 1888-1898 and additional work from 1974-1979.    Special Highlights of the Temple de Saint Pierre include; The Interior- is impressive with plenty of open space and stunning decor, isles divided off by massive clustered piers, a large gallery and much more.  Archaeological Excavations- below the Temple de Saint Pierre reveal an extensive underground labyrinth which represents evidence of early Christian settlement on the hill.  And the Choir Stalls- These late Gothic choir stalls are delicate featuring carvings from the destroyed Chapelle des Florentins along with other interesting artifacts.  The Cathedral of St. Peter is well known as the church where John Calvin gave his inspiring sermons during the mid-16th century.
