A tribute to Freddie Mercury in Montreux 🇨🇭

#timetotravel Last winter, we travelled from Zurich to Geneva and had a stopover in Montreux. Since Freddie Mercury State is located on the shore of Lake Geneva in Montreux, and we do enjoy songs by Queen, we decided to visit the statute and pay our respects. Not knowing much about Queen apart from their songs, I was confused why was there a statute of Freddie Mercury in Montreux. After some research, I found out that Freddie had lived in Montreux and really enjoyed the town because of its tranquility which gives him a peace of mind; Queen also recorded six albums in Montreux. I have to say I very much agree with Freddie, Montreux is really a peaceful small town which offers stunning views of the Swiss Alps. Definitely do not miss out on Montreux when you are planning your visits in Switzerland/ France, and while you are at it, do not miss out on the Freddie Mercury Statute. #境外遊 #switzerland #montreux
