Switzerland - Chillon Castle, a medieval water castle on the shores of Lake Geneva

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 Chillon Castle, located at the foot of the Alps, is a water castle on the east bank of Lake Geneva. It was built in the 11th century. The medieval gray-white brick walls and red conical roof blend in with the surrounding mountains and water. It is the most representative castle in Switzerland. The best angle to shoot the Chillon Castle is from the lakeside. Since the foundation of the castle is built on the bottom of the lake, it gives people a feeling of floating on the lake. Combined with the poetic scenery of lakes and mountains, it gives people the visual sense of being in a European fairy tale town. It is super beautiful and romantic. You have to pay to enter the castle. The existing buildings include courtyards, watchtowers, halls, bedrooms, prisons, main towers of the castle, etc. The rooms display various utensils, silver swords, helmets, etc. used at that time, giving people a feeling of going back in time to the Middle Ages. #SwissTravel #LakeGeneva #Château de Chillon
