Wonderfully situated between Lake Constance and the Appenzell Alps, St. Gallen rises to about 700 m, making it one of Switzerland’s snow-friendliest cities. Its baroque Abbey District, crowned by a UNESCO-listed cathedral and the 8th-century Abbey Library, has long been a beacon of learning and culture. From the late 19th century the town also flourished as the world capital of fine embroidered lace, a legacy still visible in local designer boutiques. Today, St. Gallen pairs medieval charm with modern energy thanks to the highly ranked University of St. Gallen, whose business programs draw students worldwide. A quick hop on the historic Mühleggbahn funicular lifts locals to the Drei Weieren ponds and forested viewpoints above the rooftops.
This video captures a leisurely February walk through the city and up the hillside, light snow included. Enjoy the stroll!

![Walking Tokyo in Fall 🍂 Imperial Palace Gardens to Tokyo Station | No Talking [4K]
Enjoy a peaceful autumn walk through the heart of Tokyo — from the tree-lined sidewalks along the Imperial Palace moat to the iconic red-brick façade of Tokyo Station, the elegant Wadakura Fountain Park, and the serene outer gardens of the Imperial Palace (Kōkyo Gaien).
No talking, no music — just the authentic sounds of the city: footsteps on stone pavement, rustling autumn leaves, distant traffic, flowing water from the fountains, and birdsong among the Japanese black pines.
The Marunouchi district offers one of Tokyos most striking contrasts: centuries-old castle moats and watchtowers standing alongside gleaming modern skyscrapers. In autumn, the ginkgo trees turn golden and the maples blaze red, making this one of the most beautiful walks in the city.
Perfect for relaxation, study background ambiance, virtual travel, or simply dreaming about your next trip to Japan.
