Description

Christine gets curious about the connection between bears and Bern, and the city's founder, Berthold V. In Bern's Old Town, she takes viewers inside its historic clock tower, the Zytlogge, to see its Renaissance mechanisms still tick-tocking away. Then, she follows Bern's subterranean stream, which surfaces quite prettily in Bern's historic fountains, each its own work of art. Then it's over to Munsterplatz and Bern Minster for the 16th century history of how the Protestant Reformation impacted Bern. Then, after all that exploring, she takes a breather on the Einstein Bench, in the picturesque Rose Garden, overlooking beautiful Bern.
