If it's not Geneva, it's Caruge!

A frequent and very pleasant surprise for the guests of Geneva is the discovery of the Caruge district. Genevans themselves love to come here for joy, let alone tourists. This area can be described by many epithets as historical, ultra-fashionable, bohemian, traditional, simple, tolerant. What Karouj would you call?

Historically, the village, and later the city of Caruges, for thousands of years had a glorious neighbor, Geneva, while remaining in the shadow of glory. This is typical for the area to this day. They are trying to show the world that they also exist on the map. Here you will find hundreds of different workshops ranging from jewelry to chocolate. In this case, the list will include shoemakers, potters, tailors and carpenters. There is a brewery in Karug (be sure to try!), tailoring wedding clothes, musical instrument studio, galleries, faience factory and much more. Getting to Caruge - you get to another country and another world. This is not Geneva and this is not Switzerland! It's Caruge! During our 1.5-2 hour walk through the old part of Caruge, I will tell you about his not accidental appearance on the map, about his past and present, show secret gardens and Masonic fountains. You will learn what was the competition between Caruges and Geneva, and why Lenin chose this city for evening meetings with colleagues and supporters.
