Bastions Park, or Parc des Bastions, is a tranquil green space located just down the street from Geneva’s Old Town. This verdant oasis features expansive lawns, tree-lined walkways, and numerous benches where visitors can relax and enjoy a coffee. Entering through the main gate at Place Neuve, guests are greeted by giant public chess sets, inviting them to engage in a leisurely game. The park’s serene atmosphere and well-maintained grounds provide a perfect setting for a peaceful stroll or a quiet afternoon.
