A canceled flight led to one of the most memorable parts of my trip to Switzerland. While trying to figure out what to do with the few hours we had in Lucerne, we stumbled upon the Glacier Garden of Lucerne. The Glacier Garden itself was a fantastic exhibit and a hidden gem of Lucerne. It offers a cool and historical view of how the earth has changed since the ice age. However, this is just a teaser of what was to come. Within the walls of the Glacier Garden is the mirror maze. The mirror maze is absolutely phenomenal. This is the best mirror maze I’ve ever done. The staff clearly take great care of this maze because I could not tell where the mirrors started and where the mirrors ended. We spent about an hour wandering and laughing our way through the maze only to come out in the same place that we went in. This maze is TOO good. If you successfully make your way through, be sure to check out the silly mirrors at the end. I think about this place often and will definitely go out of my way to make it back one day. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

A geological museum. Free with the Swiss travel pass, I didn't have this so paid to enter. It's worth the visit as it is very informative of the geological history of the Alps. The labyrinth was cool, it's a mirror maze with quirky designs. The rock world tells the story of the physical formation of Luzern and the alps, beware of the puddles! The alpine garden is a walk that showcases a selection of alpine plants. There is a wooden observation tower with city views. The Swiss house is a museum containing a snapshot into the lives of the founding family and contains some stunningly detailed handmade reliefs (models) of the Alps and cabinets with various geological and archeological objects.

An interesting tourist attraction located right next to the famous Lion Monument, and definitely, a must-visit if you're visiting the monument. There is free entry for Swiss Travel Pass holders, otherwise you need to pay an entrance fee. The garden itself is quite huge, consistent of several different sections, including remnants of the glacier rocks that shaped Switzerland many years ago and a relaxing walk around greenery. Our favourite was the Mirror Maze, which was quite fun and interesting. The garden is also quite tourist friendly with many English information boards that teaches you the relationship we have we glaciers. Enjoyed our time here and highly recommend it.
