#2 Monbijou Park
The Monbijoupark is one of Bern’s most urban parks. And although it is set in between two main roads, it is, as the name suggests, a “Bijou” (gem). In the spring and summer, the large meadow is perfect for soccer games, picnics and hanging out, and in the fall, it is a popular place for flying kites. The fountain, the sandbox, Bern’s longest slide and the barefoot path (insider’s tip!) are popular with children of all ages. The adjacent “Chinderchübu”, a kids club (and great for families on rainy – and all other, as a matter of fact – days), is the perfect addition to the playground, as are the pretty food places nearby: the Contact Take Away at 70 Monbijoustrasse, the ice cream parlour La Golosa at the bus stop “Sulgenau” or the Musigbistrot at 48 Mühlemattstrasse, for example.
