Théâtre de la Parfumerie
This independent riverside arts complex is reminiscent of the
most bohemian districts of Berlin or Budapest, with a fairy-
light-strewn courtyard and atmospheric Grand Café bar in a
repurposed fragrance manufacturing plant.

Pointe de la Jonction
The fast-flowing, opaque waters of the Arve river meet the clear
blues of the Rhône at Pointe de la Junction, a popular swimming,
picnicking and general larking- about spot. Popular summer terrace
cafés and bars keep the good vibes going.
