During my brief visit to Luzern, I also visited the one and only monopoly street of Luzern.

I haven't seen any of the monuments and landmarks Luzern is famous for though, so I have a very good excuse for returning to this beautiful city some day!

Continuing the quest of visiting all the Monopoly streets in Switzerland, Basel turns out to have two Monopoly streets:

We are getting closer to winning this game!

Because I like lists and I want to force myself to really travel around and see things in Switzerland, I made a bucket list. One of the things on this bucket list is to visit all the Monopoly streets (from the 1961 edition) in Switzerland. Just because it is possible, you know? And because it is fun to visit these 'famous' streets.

I started this weekend with this particular item on my bucket list, when I was in Zürich. Apparently, there are 2 Monopoly streets in Zürich: Rennweg (yellow) and Paradeplatz (blue; the most expensive street). I can proudly say I have been to both of them!
