The lively city of Geneva, Switzerland sits at the mouth of the Rhône River, at the southern-most tip of Lake Geneva. Geneva is a bustling city that is a European financial center. It is also the epicenter of world diplomacy and serves as the headquarters for many diplomatic organizations and offices. Notably, Geneva falls in the Romandy section of Switzerland. Romandy is the section of Switzerland with French heritage. As such, everything from the language to religion to cuisine has a strong French influence. Anières, a prestigious municipality of the city, is on the Rive Gauche, or Left Bank, of Lake Geneva and just minutes to Geneva’s city center. This affluent area is home to the most expensive real estate in the city.
