PARC DU DENANTOU
Who thought they'd find an air of Thailand? A Siamese pavilion in this park? In 1818, the owner, banker William Haldimand, turned his estate into a "landscape park". He couldn't resist indulging in the fashion of the day: building the Haldimand Tower, a neo-Gothic edifice dating from 1830. Today, the site retains the signature of an illustrious host. From 1933 to 1951, the Siamese sovereign Bhumibol stayed and studied in Lausanne. To commemorate his stay, he made a gift of a Thai pavilion. A call to the open sea!
